Abstract	This paper explores the creation of the post-Indian warrior identity in Zitkala-Sas literary work American Indian Stories. It analyzes the work of the author and extracts the elements of post-Indian warrior of survivance identity from it. The paper puts the authors work into the context of survivance narratives by describing its features and by providing examples from the work. The post-Indian warrior of survivance identity is built on the resistance to the dominant culture and the new tribal representation. Zitkala-Sa successfully infiltrates these elements into her work by making them one of the most recognizable characteristics of her work. Both elements are caused by the dominant cultures manifest manners that withhold the real image of Native American people. Zitkala-Sa addresses this problem by evolving into the post-Indian warrior and the writer of survivance narratives.
