摘要
美国本土裔作家谢尔曼·阿莱克西的小说《印第安杀手》再现了九十年代印第安人难以融入主流社会的困境,揭示了导致这一状况的主要因素之一,即不断宣扬和散布种族主义的白人社会名流。小说中以舒尔茨为代表的媒体名流、以马特为代表的学术名流以及以威尔逊为代表的文艺名流制造针对印第安人的偏见与暴力,误导白人大众对印第安人的态度与看法,阻碍印第安人融入美国主流社会。阿莱克西真实反映美国种族融合的现状,批判白人名流群体是美国种族融合的一大障碍,试图引发社会警戒名流群体的种族主义言论。
The plight that the Indians have difficulty in integrating into the American mainstream in the 1990s is revealed in Native American writer Sherman Alexie s Indian Killer.The white elites who constantly propagate and spread racism are regarded as one of the main factors leading to this situation.Three characters in the novel,of whom are Schultz,the media elite,Mather,the academic elite and Wilson,the literary elite,create bias and violence against the Indians,mislead the public attitudes toward and opinions of the Indians and obstruct the Indians integrating into the American mainstream.Alexie truly reflects the present situation of American racial integration,criticizes groups of white elites as an obstacle to the racial integration in the United States and tries to trigger people s alert against elites racist remarks.
