This book focuses primarily on American Indians' experiences with the invading Anglo-Americans from the 19th century to the present. It looks briefly at Canadian experiences for comparison. The author's collected essays examine the impacts of treaties and policies related to native sovereignty, property, culture, and religion; and review modern protests to protect tribal sacred sites and long-held treaty rights, showing how indigenous societies have successfully resisted repeated governmental policies seeking to erase their cultures and force them into the general society. Essentially, these readings chronical Indians' survival as they overcame the policies of settler colonialism which sought to destroy their societies. The book supports the many university and college courses in American Indian Studies, Indigenous Studies, and Ethnic Studies.
