Description

“Carlisle football teams always aimed to show off masculine American Indian bodies. Tracing shifts in the meaning of that display—from virtuous civilization to a more brutal physicality—Matthew Bentley and John Bloom tell a powerful new story about the internal contradictions and long decline of America’s iconic Indian boarding school. A revelatory book that is not to be missed.” —Philip J. Deloria, author of Indians in Unexpected Places “Clear and engaging. This book offers an accessible history of the entanglements of race, empire, sport, gender, and schooling as manifested in the play of football at the Carlisle institution. . . . This book stands alone in its close reading of masculinity, racial formation, and modernity.” —C. Richard King, author of Redskins: Insult and Brand The Imperial Gridiron Manhood, Civilization, and Football at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School Matthew Bentley & John Bloom University of Nebraska Press | Lincoln © 2022 by the Board of Regents of the University of Nebraska Cover designed by University of Nebraska Press; cover photograph provided Courtesy of the Robert R.
