Series Title:
Fighting Words
Description:
Not restricted to writings about military conflict, this anthology presents student researchers with the words of both Natives and non-Natives on a wide range of conflicts and bitterly contested issues involving Native American experiences and rights.
Deploying an extensive array of sources, including newspaper reports, congressional documents, government documents, and Indian tribal sources,
Competing Voices from Native America: Fighting Words
is divided into chapters, each of which highlights a conflict or controversy and presents the opposing views of Native Americans and non-Native Americans. Key issues explored include spirituality and human relationship to nature and land. Events presented range from “Discovery,” through the period of conflict beginning in 1676 and extending to the beginning of the 19th century, to Indian Removal, the termination of the federal trusteeship relationship of the U.S. government and Indian peoples, and major recent developments.
Title Features:
Chapters each highlight a conflict or controversy from the perspectives of both Native and non-Native Americans
Sources include newspaper reports, congressional documents, government documents, and Indian tribal sources
Short, snappy extracts, with contextual explanations are tailored for high school students writing papers on Native America
