“Along with their Indian inhabitants, these dry, arid regions are perceived and discursively interpreted as marginal within the dominant Euroamerican perspective...Virtually unknown to the public at large, an alternative narrative exists about these dry desert places. Rather than a no man’s land, or a wasteland, many Indians describe these deserts as places of origin and emergence, as holy places, and sacred geographies.” (Kuletz 13-14)
