The Reaffirmation of Wendat/Wyandotte Identity examines the issues of identity and cultural adaptation of the Wendat Nation of Wendake (Quebec) and the Wyandotte Nation of Oklahoma (United States), both of which originated from the same confederation that dispersed more than 350 years ago.
Author Linda R. Sioui offers a fresh look at the identity markers, historical cultural influences, and contemporary convergences and divergences that characterize the two communities, placing them in the context of globalization, which often tends to present Indigenous groups as a uniform whole. In doing so, she shows the importance of understanding the dynamics of cultural transformation among Indigenous peoples who share a common origin.
