From the acclaimed Ojibwe author and professor Anton Treuer comes
an essential book of questions and answers for Native and
non-Native young readers alike. Ranging from "Why is there such a
fuss about nonnative people wearing Indian costumes for Halloween?"
to "Why is it called a 'traditional Indian fry bread taco'?" to
"What's it like for natives who don't look native?" to "Why are
Indians so often imagined rather than understood?", and beyond,
Everything You Wanted to Know About Indians But Were Afraid to Ask
(Young Readers Edition) does exactly what its title says for young
readers, in a style consistently thoughtful, personal, and
engaging.
On 27 June 1868, Hole in the Day (Bagonegiizhig) the Younger left
Crow Wing, Minnesota, for Washington, DC, to fight the planned
removal of the Mississippi Ojibwe to a reservation at White Earth.
Several miles from his home, the self-styled leader of all the
Ojibwe was stopped by at least twelve Ojibwe men and fatally shot.
Hole in the Days death was national news, and rumours of its cause
were many: personal jealousy, retribution for his claiming to be
head chief of the Ojibwe, retaliation for the attacks he fomented
in 1862, or retribution for his attempts to keep mixed-blood Ojibwe
off the White Earth Reservation. Still later, investigators found
evidence of a more disturbing plot involving some of his closest
colleagues: the business elite at Crow Wing. While most historians
concentrate on the Ojibwe relationship with whites to explain this
story, Anton Treuer focuses on interactions with other tribes, the
role of Ojibwe culture and tradition, and interviews with more than
fifty elders to further explain the events leading up to the death
of Hole in the Day. This is not only the biography of a powerful
leader but an extraordinarily insightful analysis of a pivotal time
in the history of the Ojibwe people.
