A general introduction to the social and legal issues involved in
acts of violence against Native women, this book's contributors are
lawyers, social workers, social scientists, writers, poets, and
victims. In the U.S. Native women are more likely than women from
any other group to suffer violence, from rape and battery to more
subtle forms of abuse, and Sharing Our Stories of Survival explores
the causes and consequences of such behavior. The stories and
case-studies presented here are often painful and raw, and the
statistics are overwhelmingly grim; but a countervailing theme also
runs through this extremely informative volume: Many of the women
who appear in these pages are survivors, often strengthened by
their travails, and the violence examined here is human violence,
meaning that it can be changed, if only with much effort and
education. The first step is to lay out the truth for all to see,
and that is the purpose accomplished by this book.
