ON THE COVER
The "Indian" ---image of a warrior tradition among Blacks in The Americas--appears annually in various
festivals. "Black Indians" are a fixture among African-American families and other social organizations in
the New Orleans Mardi Gras. In the Trinidad carnival,
"Indian" masqueraders organize themselves as members of red, black, or white "tribes." This young man
is the chief of his tribe. His costume emphasizes elements of power in
symmetrical and balanced relationships. (Photo by H. Braithwaite.)
