รายละเอียดสินค้า

＜p＞My People the Sioux is a foundational work of Native American autobiography and ethnohistory, recounting Lakota life before and after the violent disruptions of U.S. expansion. Written in clear, dignified prose, the book blends personal memoir, cultural testimony, and historical correction, offering detailed accounts of childhood, education, kinship, ceremony, warfare, and reservation life. Its literary significance lies in its insistence that Sioux society be understood from within, not through the distortions of conquest-era anthropology or popular frontier mythology. Luther Standing Bear, born Ota Kte in the 1860s, was an Oglala Lakota leader, educator, performer, and writer whose life crossed multiple worlds. As one of the first students at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School, he experienced firsthand the assimilationist policies imposed on Native children. His later work in Wild West shows and Hollywood sharpened his awareness of how Indigenous peoples were representedーand misrepresentedーto American audiences, helping shape his resolve to write with authority and moral clarity. This book is recommended for readers seeking an essential Indigenous perspective on American history. It is especially valuable for those interested in memoir, colonialism, Lakota culture, and the recovery of Native voices suppressed by official narratives.
