Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Aborigines of Australia The government is administered by a council of old men, the young not being admitted. There is also a class that go from tribe to tribe, and their medicine men. The intelligence of the natives is quite underrated. Their skill and activity in war, and their subtlety as diplomatists, Mr. Lang says, are quite equal to the North American Indian. (having mixed with the North American Indians, I think this is rather exaggerated.) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2017-11-24 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Aborigines of Western Australia I am well aware that the subject is rather out of my line, and for this reason alone I can scarcely expect to do justice to the theme. Nevertheless, during my wander ings through Western Australia, in the capacity of a mining engineer, I came across a good many of the natives; and taking a profound interest in everything connected with the colony I resolved to set down in brief and simple form such facts as I could glean regarding this most curious specimen of the human race. I lay no more claim to originality than is due to one who has arranged his matter in his own way, and added a few thoughts suggested and accruing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Question of Aborigines: In the Law and Practice of Nations; Including a Collection of Authorities and Documents, Written at the Request of the Department of State The instructions of the Department in regard to the making of this study of authorities and documents state that the plan does not. In general, contemplate research prior to the period of the Congress of Vienna, but that this limitation is not imperative. The peace of 1763 between Great Britain and France, involving as it did the trans fer of territory inhabited by aboriginal tribes, would seem to have been the occasion of an investigation into the law of nations on this subject which resulted in the formulation of the basic principles sub sequently applied by the European nations and 'the United States. Therefore the peace of 1763, rather than the Congress of Vienna, is in this study taken as beginning of the modern law on the subject.

Book An Indigenous Peoples  History of the United States  10th Anniversary Edition

Download or read book An Indigenous Peoples History of the United States 10th Anniversary Edition written by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2023-10-03 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York Times Bestseller Now part of the HBO docuseries "Exterminate All the Brutes," written and directed by Raoul Peck Recipient of the American Book Award The first history of the United States told from the perspective of indigenous peoples Today in the United States, there are more than five hundred federally recognized Indigenous nations comprising nearly three million people, descendants of the fifteen million Native people who once inhabited this land. The centuries-long genocidal program of the US settler-colonial regimen has largely been omitted from history. Now, for the first time, acclaimed historian and activist Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz offers a history of the United States told from the perspective of Indigenous peoples and reveals how Native Americans, for centuries, actively resisted expansion of the US empire. With growing support for movements such as the campaign to abolish Columbus Day and replace it with Indigenous Peoples’ Day and the Dakota Access Pipeline protest led by the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States is an essential resource providing historical threads that are crucial for understanding the present. In An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States, Dunbar-Ortiz adroitly challenges the founding myth of the United States and shows how policy against the Indigenous peoples was colonialist and designed to seize the territories of the original inhabitants, displacing or eliminating them. And as Dunbar-Ortiz reveals, this policy was praised in popular culture, through writers like James Fenimore Cooper and Walt Whitman, and in the highest offices of government and the military. Shockingly, as the genocidal policy reached its zenith under President Andrew Jackson, its ruthlessness was best articulated by US Army general Thomas S. Jesup, who, in 1836, wrote of the Seminoles: “The country can be rid of them only by exterminating them.” Spanning more than four hundred years, this classic bottom-up peoples’ history radically reframes US history and explodes the silences that have haunted our national narrative. An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States is a 2015 PEN Oakland-Josephine Miles Award for Excellence in Literature.

Download or read book The Native Tribes of South Australia Classic Reprint written by George Taplin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-09 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Native Tribes of South Australia The object of this publication is to preserve and to place before the public, in a collected form, some of the few accounts which have been written respecting the native tribes of South Australia. They are not numerous, nor are they sufficiently complete to furnish the materials for a full history of those races which once inhabited the immense territory known as the Province of South Australia. No attempt was ever made by, or at the instance of the Colonial Government, to investigate and record the manners and customs of the Aborigines, nor to preserve their language; so that now only a comparatively imperfect idea can be formed of the South Australian natives as a whole.

This book was released on 2017-10-18 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Language of the Aborigines of the Colony of Victoria and Other Australian Districts: With Parallel Translations and Familiar Specimens in Dialogue, as a Guide to Aboriginal Protectors and Others Engaged in Ameliorating Their Condition To treat on the habits and customs of the Australian Aborigines in the limited space alloted to the Author, he feels that he shall scarcely be able to do either the subject, or that ill-used race of people, the justice to which they are in every way entitled, but which has been so long withheld from them. The object of the present introduction is to lay before the reader, in as brief a form as' possible, the leading features of a very interesting race of people, who are generally supposed to possess but little of the intellectuality with which their more favored white brethren are gifted. Than such a conclusion nothing could be more unreal in fact, or unjust to those to whom the imputation is implied, few people possessing closer reasoning powers, or having observing faculties of a higher order. This is not a passing remark of the moment, but the assertion of an individual who has devoted some fifteen years of his life to the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Aborigines of South America The lamented author of this work is well known to geographers as an eminent authority on South America, the author of an interesting paper on the inland seas of that continent in geological times, and of a very important one on its physical geography. He had since applied his great knowledge and powers of deduction and classification to the preparation of a work on the aborigines of South America. It remained incomplete at his death, but the finished part included all the Amazonian races and tribes south of the great river, those of the Gran Chacu, as well as the Araucanian, Pampas, and Patagonian Indians.

Book Aboriginal Australians

Download or read book Aboriginal Australians written by Richard Broome and published by Allen & Unwin. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The vast sweeping story of Aboriginal Australia from 1788 is told in Richard Broome's typical lucid and imaginative style. This is an important work of great scholarship, passion and imagination.' - Professor Lynette Russell, Centre for Australian Indigenous Studies, Monash University In the creation of any new society, there are winners and losers. So it was with Australia as it grew from a colonial outpost to an affluent society. Richard Broome tells the history of Australia from the standpoint of the original Australians: those who lost most in the early colonial struggle for power. Surveying over two centuries of Aboriginal-European encounters, he shows how white settlers steadily supplanted the original inhabitants, from the shining coasts to inland deserts, by sheer force of numbers, disease, technology and violence. He also tells the story of Aboriginal survival through resistance and accommodation, and traces the continuing Aboriginal struggle to move from the margins of a settler society to a more central place in modern Australia. Broome's Aboriginal Australians has long been regarded as the most authoritative account of black-white relations in Australia. This fifth edition continues the story, covering the impact of the Northern Territory Intervention, the mining boom in remote Australia, the Uluru Statement, the resurgence of interest in traditional Aboriginal knowledge and culture, and the new generation of Aboriginal leaders. 'Richard Broome's historical analysis breaks the back of every theoretical argument about colonialism and establishes a clear pathway to understanding the present situation.' - Sharon Meagher, Aboriginal Education Development Officer, Women's and Children's Hospital, Adelaide
