Sheldon Krasowski. No Surrender
We are all treaty people. For some, this expression recalls the nation-to-nation relationships negotiated through treaty making. Treaties outline each party’s benefits, rights, and ongoing responsibilities. Under Canadian law, treaties are protected by the Constitution, as are unextinguished Aboriginal rights for those not under treaty.

The impact of ethnohistorical methodologies, “the cultural turn,” and the centrality of race and imperialism …

Aboriginal land claims, rights litigation, and landmark cases originating in BC, such as Delgamuukw , have made historians more aware of constructions of …

Missionary Conquest
This fascinating probe into U.S. mission history spotlights four cases: Junipero Serra, the Franciscan whose mission to California natives has made him a candidate for sainthood; John Eliot, the renowned Puritan missionary to Massachusetts Indians; Pierre-Jean De Smet, the Jesuit missioner to the Indians of the Midwest; and Henry Benjamin Whipple, who engineered the U.S. government's theft of the Black Hills from the Sioux

It brings together the work of a number of scholars on a wide range of issues in Indian-white relations, and develops many of the themes identified in the earlier work. The articles, all previously published, are concerned with developments in the various regions of Can…
