Fulcrum Publishing Red Earth, White Lies: Native Americans and the
Book SynopsisVine Deloria, Jr., leading Native American scholar and author of the best-selling God is Red, addresses the conflict between mainstream scientific theory about our world and the ancestral worldview of Native Americans. Claiming that science has created a largely fictional scenario for American Indians in prehistoric North America, Deloria offers an alternative view of the continent's history as seen through the eyes and memories of Native Americans. Further, he warns future generations of scientists not to repeat the ethnocentric omissions and fallacies of the past by dismissing Native oral tradition as mere legends.Trade Review"This is Vine Deloria's best book yet. ... Red Earth, White Lies shoots down a whole herd of sacred cows-from Charles Darwin's cow to Samuel Eliot Morison's bull." -Leslie Marmon Silko, author of Ceremony "Vine Deloria, Jr,. started the whole modern American Indian renaissance. ... Now, in Red Earth, White Lies, he is lambasting scholars and scientists for filling our heads with nonsense while they ignore the traditional knowledge of native tribes. Bound to be controversial, bound to start readers rethinking old concepts." -Dee Brown, author of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee "This is Vine Deloria at his very best-challenging, taunting, acerbic-and powerful." -Alvin M.

University of KwaZulu-Natal Press Abantu Abamnyama Lapa Bavela Ngakhona
Book SynopsisThis unique book is the first ever written in isiZulu by a Zulu author. Magema Fuze wrote it in the early 1900s, and published it privately in 1922 under the title Abantu Abamnyama, Lapa Bavela Ngakona.In this fascinating work, the author gives his views on racial origins and differences, and describes the settlement of the black people throughout Natal. He records the traditional customs of the Zulu people, and gives an overview of Zulu history during the turbulent period of the nineteenth century, from the perspective of the black people who lived through it. Integrated with this is Bishop Colenso's account of Natal history, which Fuze reproduces and comments on. Of added interest is Hlonipha Mokoena's foreword that offers insightful commentary on the contextual realities and challenges of the time.

Aboriginal Studies Press A Record in Bone
Book SynopsisBone and tooth tools and ornaments have been made by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples for at least 46,000 years - some of the oldest organic technologies in the world. Despite their beauty, sophistication, and ubiquity, archaeologists and other researchers have overwhelmingly focused on the stone artefacts of Australia. Consequently, until now, we knew little of how bone and tooth objects were made and used, or how individual communities differed in how they worked with these distinctive materials.A Record in Bone brings together the scattered and sometimes difficult-to-find research and findings of more than a century. It reveals innovative bone, tooth, quill, and claw industries, including extensive use of ornamentation, bone points, fishhooks, and much more.This volume is a perfect companion to A Record in Stone: The study of Australia''s flaked stone artefacts (ASP 2007). It is an invaluable reference text for professionals and students of archaeology, anthropo

Book SynopsisClaire Henty-Gebert''s life is remarkable and inspiring. Born in the late 1930s, the daughter of a white settler and an Alyawarra woman, Claire was four years old when she was taken to the Bungalow mission in Alice Springs.

Inspired by others, Claire traced her Aboriginal family, however; she was never to meet her mother.

Aboriginal Studies Press Something Special
Book SynopsisThis story that shows the Aboriginal people of the Katherine West Region knew their own health needs best, and had the ability to make the best decisions about these needs.

Aboriginal Studies Press The Social Archaeology of Australian Indigenous
Book SynopsisThis book presents original and provocative views on the complex and dynamic social lives of Indigenous Australians from an historical perspective. Building on the foundational work of Harry Lourandos, the book critically examines and challenges traditional approaches which have presented Indigenous Australian pasts as static and tethered to ecological rationalism.The book reveals the ancient past of Aboriginal Australians to be one of long-term changes in social relationships and traditions, as well as the active management and manipulation of the environment. It encourages a deeper appreciation of the ways Aboriginal peoples have engaged with, and constructed their worlds. It solicits a deeper understanding of the contemporary political and social context of research and the insidious impacts of colonialist philosophies. In short, it concerns people: both past and present. Ultimately, The Social Archaeology of Australian Indigenous Societies looks beyond the stereotype of Aboriginal

Aboriginal Studies Press Palm Island
Book SynopsisIn November 2004, Mulrunji Doomadgee''s tragic death triggered civil unrest within the Indigenous community of Palm Island. This led to the first prosecution of a Queensland police officer in relation to a death in custody. Despite prolonged media attention, much of it negative and full of stereotypes, few Australians know the turbulent history of Australia''s Alcatraz, a political prison set up to exile Queensland''s ''troublesome blacks''. In Palm Island, Joanne Watson gives the first substantial history of the island from pre-contact to the present, set against a background of some of the most explosive episodes in Queensland history. The repressive regimes were under the guise of protectionism. But police control continues, and there is a continuing failure to address the causes of ongoing Indigenous disadvantage. Palm Island, often heart-wrenching and at times uplifting, is a study in the dynamics of power and privilege, and how it is resisted.

University of Alberta Press MÃtis in Canada
Book SynopsisTwelve essays look at Canadian MÃtis today in terms of history, identity, law, and politics.Trade Review#3 on McNally Robinson's Bestsellers list (Paperback Non-Fiction) for the week of June 9, 2013Everyone knows what is meant by the term Métis, and the people themselves are defined exactly by what they are not. The editors put it succinctly: 'About the only elements that tie this diversity together are the facts of the Métis peoples' distinctiveness - from other Indigenous peoples and from the settlers - and their constitutional recognition as rights-bearing, indigenous peoples in Canada.' This University of Alberta Press selection chronicles the unique Métis contribution to the Canadian story. Holly Doan, Blacklock's Reporter, November 9, 2013 [Full review at http://bit.ly/1aRm4Vf]"The 12 multidisciplinary essays here arose out of consideration of a key decision by the Supreme Court of Canada (R. v. Powley) that defined a ten-step test for Métis rights; how these rights play out in relation to that decision is elaborated in the four key sections implied in the title. There has not been a book this broad and deep concerning the Métis in over 20 years in Canada, so this provides a timely, informative grappling with recognition and affirmation of the Métis and their Aboriginal rights. Summing Up: Essential. All academic levels/libraries." G. Bruyere, Laurentian University, CHOICE Magazine, December 2013"...these essays, by and large, are both informative and entertaining to read. The new scholars featured in this volume interrogate the sources with intelligence and vigor, and the result is a provocative and fresh portrayal of the Métis experience in Canada." Heather Devine, Western Historical Quarterly, Summer 2014"The strong visual hierarchy is a highlight of this books’ interior typography, which has a refined, accomplished look to it. Overall, the book projects a quiet yet confident design.""...the authors share the goal of working towards a more complex and nuanced understanding of 'Métis.' By looking at the Métis from a variety of perspectives, the chapters will certainly stimulate reflection and discussion.... [T]he themes the book examines will be of interest to scholars of Aboriginal studies across Canada." * BC Studies *"[Métis in Canada] brings together a vastly diverse collection of essays, reflective of the multifaceted nature of the debates relating to Métis identifiy in Canada... Given the breadth of perspectives presented by the contributors, along with the text's overall contribution to discussions of Indigenous identity in Canada, it comes as no surprise that the editors are experts in Aboriginal policy.... Taken together, [Métis in Canada and "Métis": Race, Recognition, and the Struggle for Indigenous Peoplehood] shed new light on the intricacies surrounding not only intracommunity conceptions of Métis identify in Canada, but also longstanding, often problematic constructions of mixed-lineage and, by extension, Indigenous identities in alterity." -- Sarah MacKenzie * Canadian Literature *"The volume is notable for its efforts to capture the varied work that scholars across different disciplines are currently undertaking in the Metis past and present." -- Michel Hogue * Histoire Sociale / Social History *

University of Alberta Press Disinherited Generations
Book SynopsisTwo Cree women fought injustices regarding the rights of Indigenous women and children in Canada.Trade Review"...a unique and unforgettable look into the lives of two determined Aboriginal women, whose extraordinary efforts and unwavering determination helped to set new precedents and changed the way that Canada's Indian Act perceived and treated First Nations women.... This oral autobiography, which is highlighted by detailed notes, photographs and personal stories of tumultuous times and triumphant achievements, is a must read for every student of Native Studies and those interested in learning more about the quest for dignity, human rights, gains made through various types of peaceful activism, and Aboriginal history in Canada as a whole." John Copley, Alberta Native News, March 2013"Knowing about these two women's stories (as well as those of important people like Jenny Shirt Margetts and Mary Two-Axe Earley among numerous others) is one of the missing pieces of a complex puzzle about contemporary Canadian history and the treatment of a large group of our country's citizens." Scott Hayes, St. Albert Gazette, April 10, 2013"Disinherited Generations is an oral history of Carlson and Steinhauer's struggles to fix the inherent sexism of the Indian Act. The story picks up at the founding of their activist group Indian Rights for Indian Women and carries on through years of advocacy and legal set-backs all the way to 1985, when section 12(1)(b) was finally repealed to adhere to the recently passed Charter of Rights and Freedoms." Michael Hingston, Edmonton Journal, February 15, 2013#5 on the Edmonton Journal's Non-fiction Bestsellers list for the week of May 3, 2013"In this oral autobiography told to a Canadian writer, Carlson and Steinhauer (d. 2012), Saddle Creek Cree cousins, relate the story of their activism against discrimination by the federal government in the Indian Act and resistance in their own community." Book News Inc., 2013"This book is a testament to the strength of these women who persevered, despite threats that they and their families would be shot if they tried coming back to their reserves. In the face of ridicule, insufficient funds, legal loopholes and interminable delays, why did they continue? Valuable context behind the women's motivation comes in pages devoted to their memories.... Steinhauer succumbed to cancer last year, but her written story, with Carlson's, survives to influence a new generation..." Dianne Meili, Alberta Views, September 2013"...a highly readable set of conversations between the two Cree elders, transcribed and lovingly edited by the third author into eight chapters that address key 20th-century issues for Aboriginal women in Canada.... Discussion on the 'Indian Act,' treaty rights, and gender inequality is no academic exercise, but 'a personal matter, a family inheritance' that powerfully illustrates their effects on Aboriginal women and their children. The authors personalize the political and historical, and politicize their personal histories.... The strengths here are continuously revealed like so many repeated offerings of oral teachings of indigenous elders. Highly recommended. All levels/libraries." G. Bruyere, Choice Magazine, September 2013"An engaging and inspirational book, Disinherited Generations will have an audience among students, researchers and other people wanting to know more about treaty and Aboriginal rights, activism, the First Nations women's movement and the Indian Act.... Writing about gender discrimination in the Indian Act tends to focus on legislation and court cases, which can inadvertently silence the impact of the law on the lived lives of First Nations people.... What is clear is that not only was the violence of the Indian Act meted out on individuals, it was targeted at families and had a deep impact on cultural and collective levels. It is clear that the book was produced in a spirit of history telling that emphasizes sharing, generating research and strengthening Indigenous nations." Mary Jane Logan McCallum, Histoire Sociale/Social History, November 2013“As a direct result of Carlson and Steinhauer’s work, the number of ‘registered Indians’ in Canada more than doubled, from about 360,000 in 1985 to 824,341 in 2010—radically impacting the face of Aboriginal/State relations in Canada, and with it the face of what ‘reconciliation’ looks like today in Canada…. Indigenizing these archives—inviting researchers to the kitchen table to share Aboriginal history—Carlson, Goyette and Steinhauer offer a uniquely Cree and Métis space for scholars to build research and structure argument.” -- David Gaertner * Canadian Literature *Table of ContentsForeword xi A Tribute to Kathleen Steinhauer and Nellie Carlson MARIA CAMPBELL Acknowledgements xix Introduction xxi Two Strong Women Begin to Tell a Story LINDA GOYETTE 1 Daughters of Saddle Lake 1 2 Surviving Residential School 15 3 Love, Matrimony, and the Indian Act 27 4 Indian Rights for Indian Women 55 5 A Tribute to Jenny Shirt Margetts 71 6 How We Worked Together 81 7 Fighting for Our Birthright 97 8 This Is Our Land 109 Closing Words 119 Family Tree 121 Timeline 125 Honour Roll 131 Notes 137 Glossary 149 Further Reading 153 Index 157
