A comparative assessment of Ana Castillo’s The Guardians and Louise Erdrich’s The Round House reveals that a combination of legal restrictions and ambiguities in U.S. borderlands contributes to human rights violations, while also making clear that there cannot be a singular strategy for advancing indigenous human rights in these borderlands. By identifying specific policies and attitudes that need reform, the novels empower readers to take action and suggest that literature has a larger role in human rights activism than just spurring empathy.
