They reflect consistent engagement in Native issues and deliver a profoundly indigenous analysis of modern existence. Sovereignty, cultural roots and world view, land and treaty rights, globalization, spiritual formulations and fundamental human wisdom coalesce to provide a genuinely indigenous perspective on current events.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →As the easternmost tribe of the Iroquois Confederacy, the Mohawk people were called the "keepers of the eastern door." Their villages were sustained by hunting, fishing, and agriculture, and their people lived in communal dwellings called longhouses. Their lives changed forever with the arrival of European settlers. Readers will learn the history of the Mohawk, including their involvement with the Iroquois Confederacy and their roles in the French and Indian War as well as the American Revolution. The contributions of the Mohawk to modern society, such as the building of the Empire State Building, may surprise readers and encourage them to find out more about this amazing tribe.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Mohawk Interruptus is a bold challenge to dominant thinking in the fields of Native studies and anthropology. Combining political theory with ethnographic research among the Mohawks of Kahnawà:ke, a reserve community in what is now southwestern Quebec, Audra Simpson examines their struggles to articulate and maintain political sovereignty through centuries of settler colonialism. The Kahnawà:ke Mohawks are part of the Haudenosaunee or Iroquois Confederacy. Like many Iroquois peoples, they insist on the integrity of Haudenosaunee governance and refuse American or Canadian citizenship. Audra Simpson thinks through this politics of refusal, which stands in stark contrast to the politics of cultural recognition. Tracing the implications of refusal, Simpson argues that one sovereign political order can exist nested within a sovereign state, albeit with enormous tension around issues of jurisdiction and legitimacy. Finally, Simpson critiques anthropologists and political scientists, whom, she argues, have too readily accepted the assumption that the colonial project is complete. Belying that notion, Mohawk Interruptus calls for and demonstrates more robust and evenhanded forms of inquiry into indigenous politics in the teeth of settler governance.
