Noah Ramage is a Cassius Marcellus Clay Postdoctoral Associate in the Department of History at Yale University. His research focuses on Native American and Indigenous history, particularly the political and economic development of the Cherokee Nation during the late 19th century. He is a citizen of the Cherokee Nation and holds academic affiliations including participation in conferences like the Western History Association (WHA) and Society for Historians of the Early American Republic (SHEAR). Ramage has been recognized for his scholarship, receiving the Friends of Cal Dissertation Prize, Western History Collection Masterson Fellowship (2022), and American Philosophical Society Phillips Fund for Native American Research (2022).
His research interests include Native American and Indigenous Studies, Settler Colonialism in the United States, U.S. Imperialism, Indigenous Democracy and Nationalism, and Capitalism in the U.S. West. These themes are explored through his book project, Phoenix on Fire: The Cherokee Republic from Reconstruction to Annexation, which examines how the Cherokee government navigated sovereignty amid settler encroachment and U.S. imperialism. His work bridges domestic and global dimensions of Indigenous resistance, challenging conventional narratives about the erosion of tribal sovereignty and its intersections with U.S. expansionist policies.
His articles and conference presentations emphasize legal frameworks, nation-building, and the enduring relevance of Indigenous governance. He has taught courses such as NATAMST R1A: Native History According to Native Authors (2021) and served as a teaching assistant for multiple U.S. history courses, reflecting his commitment to education on Indigenous perspectives.
