Description
Religion and Culture in Native America presents an introduction to diverse Indigenous religious and cultural practices in North America, focusing on contemporary issues such as climate change, water rights, and social justice. By examining the historical, religious, and cultural contexts of these challenges, this book reveals how Native communities' responses are deeply spiritual and informed by sacred traditions. In collaboration with renowned ethnographer Inés Talamantez, Suzanne Crawford O'Brien explores the complexities of Native North American life, challenging traditional categories in religious studies textbooks. The book features maps and images to help locate tribal communities and illustrate key themes, as well as recommendations for further reading and research. This engaging narrative makes an ideal text for undergraduate courses in Native American Religions, Religion and Ecology, Indigenous Religions, and World Religions.
