Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Condition of Affairs in Indian Territory and California: A Report The letters furnished me by the Secretary of War secured from Col. Sumner, of Reno; Col. Pierson, of Ft. Sill; and Gen. Miles, of Los Angeles, all the aid that could be given me in furtherance of the objects of my visit, and the hospitalities of the first two were unstinted and most generous. A similar letter was given me by the Secretary of the Interior, requiring of the officials of the several Agencies visited by me all the assistance they could give consistent with the discharge of their duties. Excepting at one Agency, this did not secure to me any very special attention, possibly all that could be given consistently with more urgent duties. Stopping at Arkansas City, in Kansas, to visit the Indian School at Chilocco, near that city, I found the Senate Committee appointed to investigate certain scandals in connection with Indian Traderships, in semion at that point. A large number of traders, ear-traders, Agents, Ex-agents and others acquainted with the condition of things were gathered here, affording unusual Opportunities for picking up information such as I was seeking.

Download or read book The Destruction of California Indians written by Robert Fleming Heizer and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 1993-01-01 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: California is a contentious arena for the study of the Native American past. Some critics say genocide characterized the early conduct of Indian affairs in the state; others say humanitarian concerns. Robert F. Heizer, in the former camp, has compiled a damning collection of contemporaneous accounts that will provoke students of California history to look deeply into the state's record of race relations and to question bland generalizations about the adventuresome days of the Gold Rush. Robert F. Heizer's many works include the classic The Other Californians: Prejudice and Discrimination under Spain, Mexico, and the United States to 1920 (1971), written with Alan Almquist. In his introduction, Albert L. Hurtado sets the documents in historical context and considers Heizer's influence on scholarship as well as the advances made since his death. A professor of history at Arizona State University, Hurtado is the author of Indian Survival on the California Frontier.

This book was released on 2020-03-24 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2021 Bancroft Prize and the 2021 Ridenhour Book Prize Finalist for the 2020 National Book Award for Nonfiction Named a Top Ten Best Book of 2020 by the Washington Post and Publishers Weekly and a New York Times Critics' Top Book of 2020 A masterful and unsettling history of “Indian Removal,” the forced migration of Native Americans across the Mississippi River in the 1830s and the state-sponsored theft of their lands. In May 1830, the United States launched an unprecedented campaign to expel 80,000 Native Americans from their eastern homelands to territories west of the Mississippi River. In a firestorm of fraud and violence, thousands of Native Americans lost their lives, and thousands more lost their farms and possessions. The operation soon devolved into an unofficial policy of extermination, enabled by US officials, southern planters, and northern speculators. Hailed for its searing insight, Unworthy Republic transforms our understanding of this pivotal period in American history.

Book excerpt: The occupation of Alcatraz Island by American Indians from November 20, 1969, through June 11, 1971, focused the attention of the public on Native Americans and helped lead to the development of organized Indian activism.In this first detailed examination of the takeover, Troy Johnson tells the story of those who organized the occupation and those who participated, some by living on the island and others by soliciting donations of money, food, water, clothing, or electrical generators.Johnson documents growing unrest in the Bay Area urban Indian population and draws on interviews with those involved to describe everyday life on Alcatraz during the nineteen-month occupation.
