"Offers an enticing collection of essays on the complex and urgent issue of cultural appropriation by a remarkably heterogeneous group of scholars and critics."
- Ali Behdad (associate professor of English and comparative literature, UCLA, and author of Belated Travelers)

This book was a really informative and insightful collection of essays over cultural appropriation in our society today, mostly focusing on America's appropriation and use of Native American culture specifically more or less. The topics in this book covers a lot of ground from arts, land, and artifacts to ideas, knowledge, and symbols. The book doesn't try and point fingers blaming anyone rather then stating facts of the matter over the gray area of cultural appropriation. Overall a really nice read.
