A very good copy with some shelfwear. In the 1930's an ethnological researcher named Dr. Elsie Clews Parsons received a letter from an anonymous Native American offering, under rather mysterious circumstances, to offer her a series of paintings and sketches of the lives, customs, costumes, and rituals of the Pueblo peoples, in an effort to assist with the factual accuracy of her researches and subsequent publications. Dr. Parsons accepted, and began a back and forth correspondence with the individual, whom she named "Felipe" for a number of years. This volume gathers together the Isleta paintings together in context for the first time, providing a valuable eyewitness insight into the daily lives and special occasions of the Pueblo peoples.…

A short broken run of the official organ of the Bureau of Indian Affairs, in Juneau Alaska during the implementation of the Native Claims Settlement Act under the Nixon administration, and including the issue devoted entirely to it. The act was officially passed in December 1971, with the intention of completing Native Enrollment by December 1973, vastly changing the nature of land ownership in Alaska and proclaiming the endowment of an award of $962,500,000 to be disbursed to Native regional and village corporations if they were in accordance with the terms of settlement. The role of the B.I.A. during this period was to push for mass enrollment of Native communities in order to be eligible for the settlement, and a good deal of the Native News was devoted toward that end. In an unprecedented agreement (one that has also not been repeated since) the ownership of 148.5 million acres of land was affected, with over 44 million acres coming under native ownership. One of the issues in Vol 12 contains a photospread of politicians and high profile celebrities, including Robert Redford, attempting to ensure that the maximum number of natives benefitted. Volume 10 No. 6 was printed in landscape format and was devoted entirely to full page, brightly colored infographics, charts, and diagrams translating the complexities of the Act into a digestible format. This collection spans a brief but intense period in the activities of the B.I.A. with contributions and representation from Native communities that are not necessarily repeated elsewhere. Native news has some sparse and disparate holdings in institutional collections, and only scant visibility in commerce. …

Raised in southern Arizona under the influence of a Papago nanny who told her stories as a child, her art eventually, and inevitably moved toward the portrayal of these important stories.
