Really enjoyed this collection of teachings from Native American leaders. Now I‘m hungry for a comprehensive historical account of native Americans - can anyone recommend?

Andrew65 Excellent 👏👏👏 2y
SamAnne I would recommend the Heartbeat of Wounded Knee...a modern perspective by a Native American scholar on this history. Thunder in the Mountains, about Chief Joseph's effort to save his Nez Perce people, is one of the best histories I have read. And then, all the fiction...There, There by Tommy Orange! Or, watch Reservation Dogs on Hulu! 2y

bnp The above and The rediscovery of America by Ned Blackhawk are on my to read list. 2y
SaunteringVaguelyDownwards Seconding Reservation Dogs! We also read Black Elk Speaks by John G. Neihardt in my Native American literature class, but to interrogate it as a translation of Lakota beliefs (esp. in comparison to The Sixth Grandfather by Raymond DeMallie, which has the original transcripts of the interview with Black Elk). 2y
Eggs @Andrew65 Thank You and Thanks also for the rec!! 2y

I wish I‘d read this when the kids were little, although I think my husband and I came pretty close to these recommendations. I‘d buy this book in a heartbeat if I had small ones now. Our society sure needs to learn how to control anger!

MommyWantsToReadHerBook This is lovely, thank you! I follow Laura Markham's stuff but I don't I ever read the thing about acting out the behaviour with stuffed animals before. I really want to try that! I do find some of the Inuit examples rather emotionally manipulative... But a great article overall. 5y

Texreader @MommyWantsToReadHerBook Yes, I was a bit taken aback by some of the stories Told to kids. 5y
Bette Thx. Really interesting. 5y
GingerAntics That is the exact opposite to anything I‘ve ever seen parents do. I agree with every part of this article, though. I think I‘m going to have to go read that book now. I did find some of the stories to be rather manipulative (but then again, our entire education system is manipulative), but the point still remains. 5y
PeterJohn Thanks for sharing, I found this link so interesting. 5y

Most of the book was filled with powerful quotes. Towards the end of the book we‘re some speeches given by Native Americans. I really enjoyed this book but I wish there had been more speeches and less quotes.

Chrissyreadit @Dogearedcopy she is tagged in the post. I‘m not sure if Ted started one- he may be the director. Try going through her tag above? 7y
