Summary
Since before the Revolutionary War, American law and policy have been molded by a relentless tradition of Indian-hating. From a lack of proportional representation, to the break-up of tribal property rights, to the destruction of Indian culture and family, the attacks on tribal governance and people are relentless and constant. Balancing a review of the progression of law with a traditional Anishinaabe story or teaching, this timely book provides both context and a roadmap for Native American survival.
