“…Adding to the view of a new policy era is the change underway in the federal courts. Here the U.S. Supreme Court has been moving away from an emphasis on American Indian rights vis‐à‐vis states with the effect of compelling tribal governments and states to negotiate policy (Hill, ; Larson, ; McCool, ; Getches, ; Getches, Wilkinson, and Williams, ).…”

Objectives We investigate whether American Indian legislation is prevalent in state legislative agendas. Methods We examine proposed and passed legislation in states for the years 1998–2007. Results Our findings suggest that states with legislative and executive institutions that address Native issues, as well as larger American Indian constituencies, are more likely to initiate and pass American Indian legislation. We also find that states with larger legislative agendas propose and pass more Native legislations, although the amount of Native legislation has been dropping in recent years. Conclusion Native legislation is on the state policy agenda and both Indian Nations and state governments influence the size of the Native policy agenda.

Through critical analysis of Johnny Cash’s songs, performances, and writings, I attempt to tune in his understanding of indigeneity, Indian-Settler relations, and his own real and imagined Native relations. Situated within historical and contemporary cultural and sonic contexts, Cash’s Indian Country soundscape is saturated with real and imagined sounds of Indian and Settler from the physical and musical geographies of Indian Country. Indian Country music, a fluid and collective identifier for Country songs penned and performed by Natives and non-Natives, includes representations of Native Peoples, indigenous homelands, and Native-Settler relations. As I argue, Cash embodies his soundscape’s tensions by singing and sounding ambivalently about Indian-Settler relations in accordance with his Indian relations and claims. In conjunction with his corresponding claims and eventual denial as “Indian,” I follow Cash’s soundscape through a map of his songs’ Indian-Settler dualisms, namely interconflictual duel-ities over contested landscapes in his early songs (1957–1965) and interdependent dualities in subsequent compositions (1968–1975).
