The Worst Trickster Story Ever Told

"The Worst Trickster Story Ever Told" offers an engaging exploration of Native American and Supreme Court history, revealing how the story of federal authority over Native nations has evolved from racist roots in the 1880s to a narrative grounded in constitutional interpretation by the 21st century. Through a playful and unconventional approach, Keith Richotte examines the reasons behind this change and its implications for sovereignty, race, and law. Using the genre of trickster stories, the book provides a thought-provoking and entertaining perspective on over a century of legal history affecting Native Americans.
