Answer to Question 1
Tourism, in light of exploitation of tribal people, is a complex interaction of the outside with Native Americans. Interviews with tourists visiting museums and reservations found that, regardless of the presentation, many visitors interpreted their brief experiences to be consistent with their previously held stereotypes of and prejudices toward Native Americans. Yet, at the other extreme, some contemporary tourists conscious of the historical context are uncomfortable taking in Native foods and purchasing crafts at tribal settlements despite the large economic need many reservations have for such commerce.
Craftwork rarely produces the profits that most Native Americans desire and need. The trading-post business has also taken its toll on Native American cultures. Many non-Indian craft workers have produced the items tourists want. Creativity and authenticity often are replaced by mechanical duplication of genuine Indian curios. The influx of fraudulent crafts was so great that Congress added to its responsibilities the Indian Arts and Crafts Act in 1990, which severely punishes anyone who offers to sell an object as produced by a Native American artisan when it was not. The price of both economic and cultural survival is very high.
