It was created especially to meet the needs of instructors who want to add Indigenous philosophy to their courses but are unsure where to begin—as well as for students, Indigenous or otherwise, who wish to broaden their horizons with materials not found in the typical philosophy course. This collection is an invitation to embark on a relationship with Indigenous peoples through the introduction of their philosophical thoughts.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e“\u003cem\u003eWays of Being in the World\u003c\/em\u003e meets an essential need for first-hand sources on Indigenous philosophies of Turtle Island. This anthology wonderfully balances historical and contemporary material that is highly relevant to the present moment. One of my favorite features is the section on how to use the text, which contains very useful tips for teaching and learning.

Andrea Sullivan-Clarke brings together a well-considered collection of classic and contemporary essays of the highest scholarly quality. \u003cem\u003eWays of Being in the World\u003c\/em\u003e is a joy to explore.” — Andrew Frederick Smith, Drexel University\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“A welcome addition to the field. This book provides a range of Native voices and perspectives to consider in a time when we sorely need them. Both scholars and the general public should appreciate this volume.” — Eric P. Anderson (Citizen Potawatomi Nation), Haskell Indian Nations University\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e“\u003cem\u003eWays of Being in the World\u003c\/em\u003e provides an array of introductory readings on the Indigenous philosophies of North and Central America. Generously, editor Andrea Sullivan-Clarke offers a set of moral-pedagogical guidelines for professors to follow to ensure that they respectfully engage with the worldviews of colonized peoples. This book is thoroughly diverse and substantial enough for an introductory course in non-Western philosophy. It could also be used alongside canonical texts as a means of decolonizing and resisting implicit biases towards Western philosophy in the academy.” — Shay Welch, Spelman College\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eDedication \u0026amp; Acknowledgments\u003cbr\u003ePrefaceIntroduction\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBeginning in the Right Way\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhat is in a Name?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHow to Use this Book\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCokv Kerretv Heret Os\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003ePART I: THE INDIGENOUS PHILOSOPHIES OF TURTLE ISLAND\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.1 Vine Deloria, Jr. (Standing Rock Sioux), \u003cem\u003ePower and Place: Indian Education in America\u003c\/em\u003e, Chapter 3 Power and Place Equal Personality\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1.2 Donald L.
