While diabetes has been found in human populations for several millennia, cases of type 2 diabetes were rare in American Indian populations prior to World War Two. Today American Indians have some of the highest rates of diabetes worldwide. The majority of the research on this epidemic focuses on reservation populations. While rates of diabetes climbed in reservation areas, they also grew in cities, where nearly 80 percent of Native people live today. In this dissertation, I explore experiences with, understandings of, and care for diabetes in Chicago's Native community, a community that is made up of individuals representing more than 100 tribes from across the United States and Canada. Through this exploration I illustrate that diabetes in Native Chicago is understood and organized by a local system of classification that has been shaped by what community members observe in cases of the disease among family and friends. I show that in the face of this epidemic, care for disease is woven into the everyday lives of community members. Ultimately I argue that the relationship between human culture and human biology is a reciprocal one, in which history and culture shape modern human health and human health shapes modern culture. I argue that colonialism acted on bodies and communities through intergenerational trauma, displacement, chronic poverty, and altered foodways, and that the high risk of developing diabetes is being incorporated into contemporary discussions of indigenous American identity in the urban space.

Diabetes is becoming an ever prominent problem throughout the world as we enter into the Twenty-first Century. American Indian populations have the highest rates of diabetes diagnoses in the world. In order for culturally appropriate treatment to be administered, the ways that diabetes is known has to first be fully understood. Social studies of science and technology and medical anthropology demonstrate that the ways in which the material world is known is through social practices and processes. One such method of describing the ways that knowledge is achieved is through a mangle of practice (Pickering 1995), whereby, a process of resistances and accommodations occur in the development of knowledge. This thesis explores one American Indian center's modes of dealing with diabetes in an urban center. The American Indian Center of Chicago has several wellness programs that directly address the issue of diabetes. I explore the ways in which the experience of diabetes is in a mangled process of interaction between the center's wellness programs and the program participants that they are designed for. The wellness programs do have a clear impact on the ways that members of the center experience and care for their diabetes, while at the same time, the program participants have an impact on the ways that the programs take shape in the center.

Who gets diabetes and why? An in-depth examination of diabetes in the context of race, public health, class, and heredity Who is considered most at risk for diabetes, and why? In this thorough, engaging book, historian Arleen Tuchman examines and critiques how these questions have been answered by both the public and medical communities for over a century in the United States. Beginning in the late nineteenth century, Tuchman describes how at different times Jews, middle-class whites, American Indians, African Americans, and Hispanic Americans have been labeled most at risk for developing diabetes, and that such claims have reflected and perpetuated troubling assumptions about race, ethnicity, and class. She describes how diabetes underwent a mid-century transformation in the public's eye from being a disease of wealth and "civilization" to one of poverty and "primitive" populations. In tracing this cultural history, Tuchman argues that shifting understandings of diabetes reveal just as much about scientific and medical beliefs as they do about the cultural, racial, and economic milieus of their time.
