The essays in Reclaiming Indigenous Voice and Vision spring from an
International Summer Institute on the cultural restoration of
oppressed Indigenous peoples. The contributors, primarily
Indigenous, unravel the processes of colonization that enfolded
modern society and resulted in the oppression of Indigenous
peoples.
The authors -- among them Gregory Cajete, Erica-Irene Daes,
Bonnie Duran and Eduardo Duran, James Youngblood Henderson, Linda
Hogan, Leroy Little Bear, Ted Moses, Linda Tuhiwai Te Rina Smith,
Graham Hingangaroa Smith, and Robert Yazzie -- draw on a range of
disciplines, professions, and experiences. Addressing four urgent
and necessary issues -- mapping colonialism, diagnosing
colonialism, healing colonized Indigenous peoples, and imagining
postcolonial visions -- they provide new frameworks for
understanding how and why colonization has been so pervasive and
tenacious among Indigenous peoples. They also envision what they
would desire in a truly postcolonial context.
In moving and inspiring ways, Reclaiming Indigenous Voice and
Vision elaborates a new inclusive vision of a global and national
order and articulates new approaches for protecting, healing, and
restoring long-oppressed peoples, and for respecting their cultures
and languages.
