Le colonialisme, doctrine politique à laquelle le sexisme et le racisme sont des éléments inhérents, et notamment la perte qui en a découlé de la souveraineté tribale du fait de l'élaboration par le gouvernement américain au 19e siècle d'un système juridique complexe qui a limité la juridiction des gouvernements tribaux, ont eu des conséquences désastreuses sur l'intégrité physique et sociale des femmes amérindiennes. Cet article analyse les représentations problématiques et stéréotypées des amérindiens, hommes et surtout femmes, dans la culture américaine dominante contemporaine. Il se focalise sur les stéréotypes qui favorisent la violence contre les femmes amérindiennes et déconstruit ces représentations par l'analyse de l’histoire coloniale (culturelle et juridique) caractérisée par la violence raciste commise à l'encontre des amérindiens en général et des femmes amérindiennes en particulier.
