ISBN: 9780742502550 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Improving the dire health problems faced by many Native American communities is central to their cultural, political, and economic well being. However, it is still too often the case that both theoretical studies and applied programs fail to account for Native American perspectives on the range of factors that actually contribute to these problems in the first place.

Cultural and physical survival are inseparable...

Like the figures in the ancient oral literature of Native Americans, children who lived through the American Indian boarding school experience became heroes, bravely facing a monster not of their own making.

A Chemehuevi Song: The Resilience of a Southern Paiute Tribe
ISBN: 9780295994581 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Chemehuevi of the Twenty-Nine Palms tribe of Southern California stands as a testament to the power of perseverance. This small, nomadic band of Southern Paiute Indians has been repeatedly marginalized by European settlers, other Native groups, and, until now, historical narratives that have all too often overlooked them. Having survived much of the past two centuries without rights to their homeland or any self-governing abilities, the Chemehuevi were a mostly "forgotten" people until the creation of the Twenty-Nine Palms Reservation in 1974. Since then, they have formed a... The Chemehuevi of the Twenty-Nine Palms tribe of Southern California stands as a testament to the power of perseverance. This small, nomadic band o... |
