                                         Who is Winnemucca: the activist ? !

  
  Here is Sarah Winnemucca, known by this name to colonizer's culture, who comes from the Paiute tribe of Northern Nevada. Her grandfather, known as Chief Truckee, was friendly to settlers that came in 1849 and colonial culture, going so far to fight with General Fremont in the Bear Flag Revolt. Her background within and without of colonial culture greatly informs her experience, and she spent her life in activism fighting for the just treatment of reservations. Her political points culminate in the work intended to represent her tribe that's represented here: Life Among the Piutes: Their Wrongs and Claims.
  
  The excerpts represented in this anthology are:

  Chapter 1, "The First Meeting of the Piutes and Whites."
  
   &

   

  Chapter 2, "Domestic and Social Moralities."

     In order to guide the reading, each thumbnail on the first page, "Chapter 1 and 2" links to a visual of physical pages from the first two chapters of Winnemucca's autobiography "Life Among the Piutes: Their Wrongs and Claims." Click on each for the media page and follow the annotations to understand Winnemucca's rhetorical positionality as a person ,visible outside her activism, enacted in her writing here.
  
     Please, click on the page numbers of each page to view them in full screen, as if you were able to see this copy. Or, continue on a path of general concepts that may illuminate multiple perspectives of Winnemucca's work used here, positioned in a post-structuralist sense. You may not necessarily read through the full two chapters of this edition fully, because the variously included, necessary rhetorical notes on Winnemucca's position here can structure your path.

  Sarah is positioned, in honor of her value there,

  generally at Pyramid Lake on the handy map tool.
  
  Through this representation, this recovery of Sarah hopes to appropriately include her among a diverse set of selected writings and other women.
  
                                                                                Holistic Identity
  
  Now, you can continue exploring how Life Among the Piutes: Their Wrongs and Claims exists within and is produced by a contact zone, through the following pages, and represents the effort to exercise discursive rhetorical demands in the imperialist culture of the 1800s American West, to be politically effective and publish a "tribalography." As the structure of Native society starkly differs from in roles of power and communication this inclusion within the anthology outside of print — and reprinting too —aims to decentralize the text as individually representative of her or Native opportunity in the 1800s and replace it with the acknowledgement of "survivance" (Vizenor) actually experienced by Winnemucca.
  
  The subsequent entry makes the effort to position Sarah, as she is often referred to in scholarly reference, outside a singular rhetorical space, as the author originally existed doubly-conscious of her rhetorical space within and without of the “cage of alien victorian morality” heavily influenced by her place. (Zanjani) (Eves)
  
     The focus begins with these understandings of Winnemucca in totally different rhetorical spaces, affecting her identity, and since print is an unrealistic mode to communicate in native culture, her writing comes represented equally with these concepts, as it was only a rhetorical instrument she could use to empower her people as a translator to white culture—to take her work out of the regular lens of the canon and instead as an artifact of her ability to translate between cultures.
  
  The entry here hopes to put into practice a recognition of gender-fluidity. There is the option to explore her work enacted at various times in differing gender performances (Sneider) depending on cultural role. They reflect the cross-cultural influence of the contact zone and communication strategies through about 50 short pages. As a revisionist historiography (Ryan), the recovery of it in this book, in a non-linear fashion, enables the "open/both/and rapport" (Ryan) 
   

  Positionality 

  
  At all times, this represents the text's function as translating for us readers in English, like Winnemucca herself.
  
   *It is impossible to represent all identity of native culture with a work, and we fully acknowledge and respect the self-identification and sovereignty of native tribes* 
  The two chapters are chosen, also in a sense, as an introduction to the work as a whole. Please, don't take these words to represent Sarah's identity alone. She would likely much rather have her writing here reproduced for the communal representation of the Piute tribe and the political advancement of support for her brothers and sisters.
