Recenzii
Much has been written of late on the role that Native American women have played in preserving ancestral homelands and lifeways. This beautifully constructed collection of essays is unique for its focus on the modern era, when an array of new threats to indigenous America caused Native women to employ both old and new sources of power to advance the welfare of their peoples. Rich in Native stories and voices, this volume should be required reading for all those seeking a deeper understanding of contemporary Indian affairs.
If you want to know why Indian women are strong, read this book. This valuable collection of insightful biographies shares the lives of resilient Indigenous women. They fought for their people's rights and communities during the twentieth century, while the general public believed that Indians were a 'vanishing race.' These women are role models for everyone, and this powerful volume earns new respect for American Indian women.
The Native women profiled in this collection show the vibrancy and power of indigenous women as leaders and activists engaged in preserving, recovering, and shaping their cultures and communities. These women's efforts and strategies were not only indispensable to their peoples, but were also inspirational and instructive for American Indian activism and resistance, past and present, in the continuing fight against assimilation and cultural genocide.
Indigenous Activism offers an important addition to the story of twentieth-century Native American women activism. The profiles illuminate their leadership in numerous organizations, in tribal governments, and as cultural bearers. Further, it demonstrates that motivating Native American women activists is concern for future of family and tribal nation.
