  White Earth Indian Reservation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The reservation stretches across all of Mahnomen County, plus parts of Becker and Clearwater counties in the northwest part of the state, along the Wild Rice and White Earth Rivers.
The reservation's land area is 2,831.436 km² (1,093.224 sq mi), which held a population of 9,192 residents as of the 2000 census.
The reservation originally covered 1,300 square miles (3,400 km²), but much of the community's land was improperly sold or seized to outside interests, including the U.S. federal government, in the late 19th century and early 20th century.

 Anthropology Review Database
The diversity of the reservation population which stemmed from their different adaptations to environmental resources and economic systems did apparently not evolve into an acknowledgment of ethnic differences until after the 1887 Dawes Act, the 1889 Nelson Act, and the 1904 Clapp Rider and Steenerson Act.
This led to what would indeed become the measure of ethnicity at White Earth: two anthropologists were invited to distinguish "scientifically" who was mixed-blood, and allowed to sell, and who was full-blood, and could not be alienated from her or his land.
The story told in "The White Earth Tragedy" is common to Indian country and any student of American history will do well in consulting its detailed descriptions of the process of alienation of Indian resources and the ensuing profit which allowed the US to flourish.
