Abstract:
"Indigenous women from the Americas are on the frontlines of activism in battles ranging from environmental protection, cultural and language revitalization and preservation, sovereignty campaigns, sexual violence, and human rights. This book introduces voices of Native activists blazing trails of resistance in new fields of engagement. Interviews with contemporary Native women from the northern and southern hemispheres of the Americas highlight commonalities amongst them and diverse paths of resistance work. Artists, lawyers, anthropologists, sociologists, athletes, educators, economists, and legislators seek societal transformation and reframe modes of resistance from their areas of expertise and Indigenous identity. For students in ethnic studies, gender studies, Latin American and American studies, sociology and anthropology, the conversations provide insights of Native women dynamically involved in shifting the socio-cultural imaginary and the futures of their Nations"--
