Each time I set down this book after reading with Vanessa, I feel grateful that I knew Professor Deer and learned so much from her.

And I also feel full of regret that I didn't know her long enough or well enough to hear and learn more.

What a blessing to know such a formidable ancestor!

We wrapped Chapter 3 and its nearly endless list of harms caused to Menonimees by the termination of their tribal status.

Very much looking forward to Chapter 4’s discussion of the fight for Justice!

We stopped reading a bit early tonight, as the litany of consequences of tribal termination felt so heavy.

Ada Deer’s explanation of the Indian new deal & the reasoning behind tribal termination was so good!
