Every Day is a Good Day: Reflections by Contemporary Indigenous Women by Wilma Mankiller, Foreword by Vine Deloria Jr.
Wilma Mankiller is an author, activist, and former principal chief of the Cherokee Nation. Her roots are planted deep in the rural community of Mankiller Flats in Adair County, Oklahoma, where she has spent most of her life. She has been honored with many awards, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, and has received honorary doctorate degrees from such esteemed institutions as Yale University, Dartmouth College, and Smith College. Ms. Mankiller is the author of Mankiller: A Chief and Her People and co-edited A Reader’s Companion to the History of Women in the U.S. Wilma Mankiller lives on the Mankiller family allotment with her husband, Charlie Soap.
"In this book by Indigenous Women, let us now acquaint ourselves and learn from those who have withstood the insatiable rages of the weak, who have used rifles, bad laws, atomic bombs, chemical and biological warfare to make their disastrous impression on the world. Let us who have suffered so much, and those who have been ignorant of suffering, grow our hearts again to their utter fullness. Hearing these voices, let us know the tide is beginning to turn, that knowledge of the way of balance has not been lost. Let us welcome home in ourselves, and in the world, the wisdom of the strong." —Alice Walker Introduction by Gloria Steinem Contemporary Native Women Speak Out Challenging and passionate are the voices in this gathering of proud indigenous women. Coming together as one, 19 strong and successful women provide a rare glimpse into their lives with the hope that their voices will be heard and their message understood: bear witness to the unforgivable acts that their people have survived and take a step forward in mending old wrongs and forgiving past and present hurts. 248 pages, B/W photos, paperback Every Day is a Good Day: Reflections by Contemporary Indigenous Women
