Standing Rock Sioux activist, professor, and attorney Vine Deloria, Jr., shares his thoughts about US race relations, federal bureaucracies, Christian churches, and social scientists in a collection of 11 eye-opening essays infused with humor. This "manifesto" provides valuable insights on American Indian history, Native American culture, and context for minority protest movements mobilizing across the country throughout the 1960s and early 1970s. Originally published in 1969, this book remains a timeless classic and is one of the most significant nonfiction works written by a Native American.

It's striking and sad to realize how little the State has changed regarding meaningful regard for the Indigenous Peoples of Turtle Island. But they only makes this book more necessary and it's a great reader by a brilliant author wirh with an exceptional narrator.

Could have been written in the last decade

A wonderful story from the “Indian” perspective that is as thoughtful as it is satirical!

An interesting perspective.

If you want to better understand why the American continues to make bad decisions domestically & internationally then listen to this book. It will explain the history of your country to you from a position you can't imagine. Many of the ideas have come to pass and others are still in action, not all of them good, this book says even more now than it did in 1969.

The best place to start to understand the US

This book does a great job of providing insight to the struggles of Native Americans today. It was written in the '60s, but might as well have been written today sadly. It is an interesting, insightful, funny, and deeply concerning work that should be read much more widely to any person interested in the experience of being Native in the 1960's or today.

As relevant today as when it was written.

At its core, this book lays bare the incontrovertible facts, that the American government has never honored a treaty with native peoples, they have never regarded native peoples with anything like an equal status, and that conservatives and liberals alike have abused, cajoled and patronized natives into within an inch of their lives. Only through the perverted prism of white christian supremacy, (the *original* identity politics), can the obvious be ignored.

Throughout the book, the author presents examples of the ignorance and/or inability of American policy and policymakers, both malicious and well-intentioned, which resulted in abject failure. At the center of it all, is the refusal to acknowledge self-identity in determining the future. Always cast in a narrow American notion of civilization or success or wealth, such programs were always bound to fail. Even the notion that all civil rights fights must be in lockstep gets a sound thrashing. The histories are not the same, and cannot be addressed necessarily by the same means.

But by far, the most enjoyable part of the book are the anecdotes of the missionaries. The story of the young woman who claimed she had to de-program the Baptist teachings from a tribe, before she could inculcate them with her dogma, is especially hilarious. As Christianity is fading in American life, these stories, written 50 years ago, illustrate how patently absurd are the religious traditions in this country. The rampant denominationalism and the willingness to sacrifice the souls of certain tribes to other factions, in order to get a piece of the pie for their sect, exposes the hypocrisy of western religion.

The only minor quibble I'd make is that that author incorrectly uses terms like Anglo-Saxon and WASP. It may be that he's using the terms in their racially-charged context, as a construct of white supremacy, excluding all but the "purest". But Anglo-Saxons as a discrete group of people have not actually existed in a millennium.

Do I agree absolutely with every word? Not always. Do his words make me stretch my mind? Oh yeah. I hadn’t read this for probably 40 years. In listening I realize how much an effect he has had on my views.
Have my feelings been hurt by his words? Occasionally. Does it make him any less right? Nope. There are few writers that that have made as much on an impact as on me as this one.

I forgot how much I love this man’s perspective
