This book was released on 2015-07-19 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Taopi and His Friends, or the Indians' Wrongs and Rights In publishing the following instructive, encouraging and deeply interesting Journal, written by the Rev. S. D. Hinman at the Santee Indian Mission, and Bishop Whipple's pathetic address made at the funeral of Taopi, it is evidently proper that an historical sketch of the Mission should accompany these papers. The preparation of such a sketch naturally devolves upon one who has the official supervision of the Mission under the sanction of the Board of Missions and of Bishop Clarkson, with the approval also of Bishop Whipple and the Rev. S. D. Hinman. Ignorance concerning Missions to Indians and the consequent lack of faith in them render an account of the origin, progress and prospects of the Church's Mission to the Sioux nation very important, especially at this extraordinary juncture in Indian affairs. - It is always instructive to trace as far as is possible the preparation of God's agents who are to lay the foundation for a great Missionary work, therefore let us briefly consider the characters engaged in this Mission. First, a man of purity of character, ready sympathy and fervid eloquence, was made wise in the things of this world by a mercantile training, and then called of God to enter the sacred ministry. The Spirit of Christ first incited him to preach the Gospel to the poor slave, and then in another sphere to visit the homes and workshops of mechanics, to make himself thoroughly acquainted with their avocations, and then to draw them to a free Church, where they were cordially welcomed and won to Christ.

Book Interrupted Odyssey

  • Author : Mary Stockwell
  • Publisher : SIU Press

  • ISBN : 0809336715
  • Pages : 272 pages

Download or read book Interrupted Odyssey written by Mary Stockwell and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 2018-09-12 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first book devoted to the genesis, failure, and lasting legacy of Ulysses S. Grant’s comprehensive American Indian policy, Mary Stockwell shows Grant as an essential bridge between Andrew Jackson’s pushing Indians out of the American experience and Franklin D. Roosevelt’s welcoming them back in. Situating Grant at the center of Indian policy development after the Civil War, Interrupted Odyssey: Ulysses S. Grant and the American Indians reveals the bravery and foresight of the eighteenth president in saying that Indians must be saved and woven into the fabric of American life. In the late 1860s, before becoming president, Grant collaborated with Ely Parker, a Seneca Indian who became his first commissioner of Indian affairs, on a plan to rescue the tribes from certain destruction. Grant hoped to save the Indians from extermination by moving them to reservations, where they would be guarded by the U.S. Army, and welcoming them into the nation as American citizens. By so doing, he would restore the executive branch’s traditional authority over Indian policy that had been upended by Jackson. In Interrupted Odyssey, Stockwell rejects the common claim in previous Grant scholarship that he handed the reservations over to Christian missionaries as part of his original policy. In part because Grant’s plan ended political patronage, Congress overturned his policy by disallowing Army officers from serving in civil posts, abandoning the treaty system, and making the new Board of Indian Commissioners the supervisors of the Indian service. Only after Congress banned Army officers from the Indian service did Grant place missionaries in charge of the reservations, and only after the board falsely accused Parker of fraud before Congress did Grant lose faith in his original policy. Stockwell explores in depth the ousting of Parker, revealing the deep-seated prejudices that fueled opposition to him, and details Grant’s stunned disappointment when the Modoc murdered his peace commissioners and several tribes—the Comanche, Kiowa, Cheyenne, and Sioux—rose up against his plans for them. Though his dreams were interrupted through the opposition of Congress, reformers, and the tribes themselves, Grant set his country firmly toward making Indians full participants in the national experience. In setting Grant’s contributions against the wider story of the American Indians, Stockwell’s bold, thoughtful reappraisal reverses the general dismissal of Grant’s approach to the Indians as a complete failure and highlights the courage of his policies during a time of great prejudice.

Book A Field of Their Own

  • Author : John M. Rhea
  • Publisher : University of Oklahoma Press

  • ISBN : 0806155434
  • Pages : 446 pages

Download or read book A Field of Their Own written by John M. Rhea and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One hundred and forty years before Gerda Lerner established women’s history as a specialized field in 1972, a small group of women began to claim American Indian history as their own domain. A Field of Their Own examines nine key figures in American Indian scholarship to reveal how women came to be identified with Indian history and why they eventually claimed it as their own field. From Helen Hunt Jackson to Angie Debo, the magnitude of their research, the reach of their scholarship, the popularity of their publications, and their close identification with Indian scholarship makes their invisibility as pioneering founders of this specialized field all the more intriguing. Reclaiming this lost history, John M. Rhea looks at the cultural processes through which women were connected to Indian history and traces the genesis of their interest to the nineteenth-century push for women’s rights. In the early 1830s evangelical preachers and women’s rights proponents linked American Indians to white women’s religious and social interests. Later, pre-professional women ethnologists would claim Indians as a special political cause. Helen Hunt Jackson’s 1881 publication, A Century of Dishonor, and Alice Fletcher’s 1887 report, Indian Education and Civilization, foreshadowed the emerging history profession’s objective methodology and established a document-driven standard for later Indian histories. By the twentieth century, historians Emma Helen Blair, Louise Phelps Kellogg, and Annie Heloise Abel, in a bid to boost their professional status, established Indian history as a formal specialized field. However, enduring barriers continued to discourage American Indians from pursuing their own document-driven histories. Cultural and academic walls crumbled in 1919 when Cherokee scholar Rachel Caroline Eaton earned a Ph.D. in American history. Eaton and later Indigenous historians Anna L. Lewis and Muriel H. Wright would each play a crucial role in shaping Angie Debo’s 1940 indictment of European American settler colonialism, And Still the Waters Run. Rhea’s wide-ranging approach goes beyond existing compensatory histories to illuminate the national consequences of women’s century-long predominance over American Indian scholarship. In the process, his thoughtful study also chronicles Indigenous women’s long and ultimately successful struggle to transform the way that historians portray American Indian peoples and their pasts.
