Summary
Writing in 1917, the Seneca intellectual Arthur C. Parker claimed the following about the “American Indian”: “Loving liberty as he does, he will fight for it. Knowing the tragedy of ‘broken treaties,’ he will fight that there not be more treaties broken. Challenged, the Indian has responded and shown himself a citizen of the world and an exponent of an ethical civilization wherein human liberty is assured.” In a different essay, entitled “The American Indian in the World Crisis,” Parker called the American Indian “a world patriot.”1 During World War I, American Indians such as Parker asserted a global outlook as they sought citizenship at home and democracy for small nations abroad, an early form of the Double V campaign.
