Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word Wasáse is the Kanienkeha (Mohawk) word for the ancient war dance ceremony of unity, strength, and commitment to action. The author notes, "This book traces the journey of those Indigenous people who have found a way to transcend the colonial identities which are the legacy of our history and live as Onkwehonwe, original people. It is dialogue and reflection on the process of transcending colonialism in a personal and collective sense: making meaningful change in our lives and transforming society by recreating our personalities, regenerating our cultures, and surging against forces that keep us bound to our colonial past."

Download or read book Heeding the Voices of Our Ancestors written by Gerald R. Alfred and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first comprehensive study of the driving force behind Native political activism, and the only scholarly treatment of North American Indian politics which integrates an explicitly Native perspective. With a broad historical scope rich in detail, and drawing on the particular experience of the Mohawks of Kahnawake, it offers an explanation of Indian and Inuit political activism focusing on the importance of traditional values and institutions in shaping Native responses to the state. The book explains the recent rise of a militant assertion of sovereignty on the part of Native people in terms of three major factors: the existence of alternative institutions in the body of the nation's traditional culture; the self-conscious development of an alternative identity; and a persistent pattern of negative interaction with the state. It differs from other analyses focusing on similar factors in that it views nationalism not as a movement which activates in response to external factors, but as a persistent feature of political life which manifests itself in either a latent or active form in response to the interaction of the three factors discussed in the model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several centuries ago, the five nations that would become the Haudenosaunee — Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca — were locked in generations-long cycles of bloodshed. When they established Kayanerenkó:wa, the Great Law of Peace, they not only resolved intractable coinflicts, but also shaped a system of law and government that would maintain peace for generations to come. This law remains in place today in Haudenosaunee communities: an Indigenous legal system, distinctive, complex, and principled. It is not only a survivor, but a viable alternative to Euro-American systems of law. With its emphasis on lasting relationships, respect for the natural world, building consensus, and on making and maintaining peace, it stands in contrast to legal systems based on property, resource exploitation, and majority rule. Although Kayanerenkó:wa has been studied by anthropologists, linguists, and historians, it has not been the subject of legal scholarship. There are few texts to which judges, lawyers, researchers, or academics may refer for any understanding of specific Indigenous legal systems. Following the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, and a growing emphasis on reconciliation, Indigenous legal systems are increasingly relevant to the evolution of law and society. In Kayanerenkó:wa Great Law of Peace Kayanesenh Paul Williams, counsel to Indigenous nations for forty years, with a law practice based in the Grand River Territory of the Six Nations, brings the sum of his experience and expertise to this analysis of Kayanerenkó:wa as a living, principled legal system. In doing so, he puts a powerful tool in the hands of Indigenous and settler communities.

Download or read book Hiawatha and the Peacemaker written by Robbie Robertson and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2015-09-08 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born of Mohawk and Cayuga descent, musical icon Robbie Robertson learned the story of Hiawatha and his spiritual guide, the Peacemaker, as part of the Iroquois oral tradition. Now he shares the same gift of storytelling with a new generation. Hiawatha was a strong and articulate Mohawk who was chosen to translate the Peacemaker’s message of unity for the five warring Iroquois nations during the 14th century. This message not only succeeded in uniting the tribes but also forever changed how the Iroquois governed themselves—a blueprint for democracy that would later inspire the authors of the U.S. Constitution. Caldecott Honor–winning illustrator David Shannon brings the journey of Hiawatha and the Peacemaker to life with arresting oil paintings. Together, the team of Robertson and Shannon has crafted a new children’s classic that will both educate and inspire readers of all ages. Includes a CD featuring an original song written and performed by Robbie Robertson.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peace! Rest of heart and mind for the individual soul. Security and comfort for the nations of the world. Freedom from distraction and surcease from the terrors of armed conflict. A conscience that does not condemn and memories that do not burn and distress. All of these and more are included in our thoughts as we think of the meaning of peace. But where is this desirable state to be found? Who enjoys this blissful condition? The worldling is a stranger to it. The self-righteous cannot attain it, however smugly complacent they may be. The callously wicked may have a conscience seared as with a hot iron, but they know nothing of true and lasting peace.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When human beings are involved in any endeavor, conflict is inevitable. But the best fight is the one a church never has to have because its members have been intentionally cultivating practices that lead to peace and preserve unity. Whether they are dealing with conflict right now or hoping to avoid it later, church members, pastors, and ministry leaders will benefit from the proactive approach to peacemaking found in The Peacemaking Church, which will equip them with the knowledge and practices they need to instill in their church leadership and membership.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does it mean to be an Indigenous man today? Between October 2010 and May 2013, Sam McKegney conducted interviews with leading Indigenous artists, critics, activists, and elders on the subject of Indigenous manhood. In offices, kitchens, and coffee shops, and once in a car driving down the 401, McKegney and his participants tackled crucial questions about masculine self-worth and how to foster balanced and empowered gender relations. Masculindians captures twenty of these conversations in a volume that is intensely personal, yet speaks across generations, geography, and gender boundaries. As varied as their speakers, the discussions range from culture, history, and world view to gender theory, artistic representations, and activist interventions. They speak of possibility and strength, of beauty and vulnerability. They speak of sensuality, eroticism, and warriorhood, and of the corrosive influence of shame, racism, and violence. Firmly grounding Indigenous continuance in sacred landscapes, interpersonal reciprocity, and relations with other-than-human kin, these conversations honour and embolden the generative potential of healthy Indigenous masculinities.

Book excerpt: Do You Know Why You Were Given Life? Have you ever wondered why people make such wrong choices for their lives? Have you, yourself, ever struggled with making decisions based upon your feelings and emotions? Do you desire to make wiser choices? Have you ever wondered why you were given life in the first place? Clothed in Righteousness is a unique book that weaves together the importance of understanding your identity in Christ along with a balanced biblical view of how Satan operates. Based on Ezekiel 16:4-14 and Ephesians 6:10-18, each chapter is written in the form of a letter from one commissioned by the King of kings to help you learn the truth about God the Father (the King); His Son, Jesus (the Prince of Peace); the Holy Spirit (also known as the Royal Counselor); and Lucifer (the archenemy), who seeks ways to wreak havoc in your life. You will come to see all of the ways that you have been clothed in God's love, truth, wisdom and power, so that you can stand firm and be victorious. If you have ever struggled with knowing who you are, or you desire to find true peace and contentment, or you want to stop making decisions based on feelings and emotions, read this book. The King of kings not only wants you to discover the truth of who you are and why He gave you life but also understand the spiritual warfare surrounding you so you can become all that He created you to be. "Clothed in righteousness is a well written, wonderful journey through God's spiritual truths presented in a straight forward, easy to relate to and understandable way. Cherie Fresonke has ministered to women for years and the way she relies on the Bible to help the hurting shows through in every chapter of the book. Recommended for anyone who ever struggles with or doubts the depth of God's love for His children." --Janice Cantore, Author of The Pacific Coast Justice Series Cherie Fresonke is an author and international speaker/teacher who has ministered to women and teens since 1993. She is the founder and director of the Truth and Hope Foundation in Sofia, Bulgaria, the author of 6 books, and the overseer of two biblical discipleship ministries at Calvary Chapel Murrieta and Calvary Chapel of the Harbour. She is married and has two daughters, two great sons-in-law and a growing number of grandchildren.

Download or read book Unsettling Canada written by Arthur Manuel and published by Between the Lines. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Canadian bestseller and winner of the 2016 Canadian Historical Association Aboriginal History Book Prize, Unsettling Canada is a landmark text built on a unique collaboration between two First Nations leaders. Arthur Manuel (1951–2017) was one of the most forceful advocates for Indigenous title and rights in Canada; Grand Chief Ron Derrickson, one of the most successful Indigenous businessmen in the country. Together, they bring a fresh perspective and bold new ideas to Canada’s most glaring piece of unfinished business: the place of Indigenous peoples within the country’s political and economic space. This vital second edition features a foreword by award-winning activist Naomi Klein and an all-new chapter co-authored by Law professor Nicole Schabus and Manuel’s daughter, Kanahus, honouring the multi-generational legacy of the Manuel family’s work.
