| 520 | |a From Caldecott Medalist Rebecca Lee Kunz and award-winning filmmaker and TV host Jen Loren comes a sweeping biography of a singular woman at the heart of the movement for Native American civil rights in the 20th century. The "Indian Problem"--that was the term used by the government in the 19th and 20th centuries. What to do with the hundreds of Native nations and tribes in and around the United States? When the goal wasn't destruction, it was assimilation. But Native people had their own plans--and one Cherokee woman, Ruth Muskrat Bronson, helped lead that charge. A poet, educator, and activist, Ruth knew that Native Americans could and should fight for their civil rights while still retaining their tribal identities. Speaking in front of the President to gain Native citizenship, penning groundbreaking poems and books, founding and leading the National Congress of American Indians, she left a legacy that still blazes brightly today. Sisters Rebecca Lee Kunz and Jen Loren--both nieces of Ruth and citizens of the Cherokee Nation--bring that legacy and the wider story of the Native American civil rights movement to richly imagined life. | ||
