nA revised and updated edition of a modern classic offers answers to nearly 200 essential and thought-provoking questions about the Native people of North America. nWhat have you always wanted to know about Indians? Do you feel like you should already know the answers--or are concerned that your questions may be offensive? For more than a decade, Anton Treuers clear, candid, and informative book has answered questions for tens of thousands of readers. This revised edition both revisits old questions from a new perspective and expands on topics that have become increasingly relevant over the past decade, including activism and tribal enrollment; truth and reconciliation efforts; gender roles and identities in Indigenous communities; the status of Alaskan Natives and Canadian First Nations; and much more. n n n nTreuer, an Ojibwe scholar and cultural preservationist, addresses nearly 200 questions on a range of topics--questions that are thoughtful and outrageous, modern and historical, and always interesting. n n n n--What are we supposed to call North Americas first people? n n--Can white people dance at powwows? n n--Whats the point of land acknowledgments? n n--Does tribal sovereignty mean that tribes can offer abortion services in states where it is now otherwise illegal? n n n nWith frank, funny, and sometimes personal prose, this book cuts through myths, guilt, and anger and builds a foundation for true understanding and positive action. nn
