During the French and Indian War, Cherokee women resisted a chief's authority, owned family households, were skilled artisans, produced plentiful crops, mastered trade negotiations, and prepared chiefs' feasts. Cherokee culture was lost when the Cherokee Nation began imitating the American form of governance to gain political favor, and white colonists reduced indigenous women's power. This book recounts long-standing Cherokee traditions and their rich histories. It demonstrates Cherokee and indigenous women as independent and strong individuals through feminist and historical perspectives. Readers will find that these women were far ahead of their time and held their own in many remarkable ways.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 254mmItem Length: 178mmItem Weight: 459gAuthor: Karen Coody CooperGenre: Law & PoliticsTopic: Society & Culture, Social Sciences, Gender Sex & Relationships, HistoryISBN-10: 1476688184Item Width: 13mmRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
