| Summary |
"In this sweeping exploration of Indigenous culture, Our Way-A Parallel History brings together Native scholars and leaders to examine the incredible diversity of Native cultures in the US. Representing more than ten Indigenous nations, the contributors seek to dispel the myth, stereotype, and absence of information about American Indian, Native Alaskan, and Native Hawaiian people in the master narrative of US history and how we understand our country today. Covering topics such as Native stories and language, Native education, the origins of democracy, the legacy of colonialism, and the indefatigable strength of Indigenous cultures to survive and thrive in the face of almost insurmountable odds, Our Way explores the ways in which Indigenous cultures from every corner of the nation have influenced American society, through the past and into the present day"-- Provided by publisher. |
