Synopsis
What have you always wanted to know about Indians? Do you feel like you should already know the answers – or are concerned that your questions may be offensive? For more than a decade, Anton Treuer’s clear, candid, and informative book has answered questions for tens of thousands of readers. This revised edition both revisits old questions from a new perspective and expands on topics that have become increasingly relevant over the past decade, including activism and tribal enrollment; truth and reconciliation efforts; gender roles and identities in Indigenous communities; the status of Alaskan Natives and Canadian First Nations; and much more.
Treuer, an Ojibwe scholar and cultural preservationist, addresses nearly 200 questions on a range of topics – questions that are thoughtful and outrageous, modern and historical, and always interesting.
This revised and expanded edition of a modern classic offers answers to nearly 200 essential and thought-provoking questions about the Native people of North America.
