This new collection reveals the vitality of the intellectual and
creative work of Native women today. The authors examine the avenues
that Native American women have chosen for creative, cultural, and
political expressions, and discuss the points of convergence between
Native American feminisms and other feminisms. Individual contributors
articulate their positions around issues such as identity, community,
sovereignty, culture, and representation. This engaging volume
crystallizes the myriad realities that inform the authors' intellectual
work, and clarifies the sources of inspiration for their roles as
individuals and indigenous intellectuals, reaffirming their paramount
commitment to their communities and Nations. It will be of great value
to Native writers as well as instructors and students in Native American
studies, women's studies, anthropology, cultural studies, literature,
and writing and composition.
