I am woman : a native perspective on sociology and feminism

Maracle, Lee (Author).

Summary: A revised edition of Lee Maracle's visionary book which links teaching of her First Nations heritage with feminism. "I Am Woman represents my personal struggle with womanhood, culture, traditional spiritual beliefs and political sovereignty, written during a time when that struggle was not over. My original intention was to empower Native women to take to heart their own personal struggle for Native feminist being. The changes made in this second edition of the text do not alter my original intention. It remains my attempt to present a Native woman's sociological perspective on the impacts of colonialism on us, as women, and on my self personally."--From the author.
