The result was A Recognition of Being, a powerful work that identified both the painful legacy of colonialism and the vital potential of self-definition. In this second edition, Anderson revisits her groundbreaking text to include recent literature on Indigenous feminism and two-spirited theory and to document the efforts of Indigenous women to resist heteropatriarchy. Beginning with a look at the positions of women in traditional Indigenous societies and their status after colonization, this text shows how Indigenous women have since resisted imposed roles, reclaimed their traditions, and reconstructed a powerful Native womanhood. Featuring a new foreword by Maria Campbell and an updated closing dialogue with Bonita Lawrence, this revised edition will be a vital text for courses in women and gender studies and Indigenous studies as well as an important resource for anyone committed to the process of decolonization."-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Indian women $z Canada $x Ethnic identity. 650 0 $a Race discrimination $z Canada. 650 0 $a Sex discrimination against women $z Canada. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2010112808 650 5 $a Native women $z Canada $x Ethnic identity. 650 7 $a Indian women $x Ethnic identity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00969256 650 7 $a Race discrimination. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086465 650 7 $a Sex discrimination against women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01114376 651 7 $a Canada. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204310 830 0 $a CSPI series in indigenous studies. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20181116051646.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BA5982C0840811E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
