| 520 | |a Ten years before he wrote The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, L. Frank Baum produced two editorials calling for the death of all Native American people.

For some, the tale is a utopian vision that vindicates its author, while for others it clearly embodies Baum's genocidal impulses. This essay explores this hermeneutical issue, arguing that The Wizard of Oz—like "religion" itself—can support opposing interpretations because the world it depicts is complex and contradictory. | ||
