That policy was dramatically confronted in the late 1960s when a loose coalition of hippies, civil rights advocates, Black Panthers, unions, Mexican-Americans, Quakers and other Christians, celebrities, and others joined with Red Power activists to fight for Indian rights.   In Hippies, Indians and the Fight for Red Power, Sherry Smith offers the first full account of this remarkable story. Hippies were among the first non-Indians of the post-World War II generation to seek contact with Native Americans. The counterculture saw Indians as genuine holdouts against conformity, inherently spiritual, ecological, tribal, communal-the original \"long hairs.\" Searching for authenticity while trying to achieve social and political justice for minorities, progressives of various stripes and colors were soon drawn to the Indian cause. Black Panthers took part in Pacific Northwest fish-ins. Corky Gonzales' Mexican American Crusade for Justice provided supplies and support for the Wounded Knee occupation. Actor Marlon Brando and comedian Dick Gregory spoke about the problems Native Americans faced. For their part, Indians understood they could not achieve political change without help. Non-Indians had to be educated and enlisted. Smith shows how Indians found, among this hodge-podge of dissatisfied Americans, willing recruits to their campaign for recognition of treaty rights; realization of tribal power, sovereignty, and self-determination; and protection of reservations as cultural homelands. The coalition was ephemeral but significant, leading to political reforms that strengthened Indian sovereignty.  Thoroughly researched and vividly written, this book not only illuminates this transformative historical moment but contributes greatly to our understanding about social movements.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50036166230289,"sku":"CIN0190217855G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50999661199633,"sku":"NIN9780190217853","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52403802341649,"sku":"NLS9780190217853","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/B077Y46P1G.jpg?v=1750842791"},{"product_id":"indians-energy-exploitation-and-opportunity-in-the-american-southwest-book-sherry-l-smith-9781934691151","title":"Indians \u0026 Energy: Exploitation and Opportunity in the American Southwest","description":"The authors consider the complex relationship between development and Indian communities in the Southwest in order to reveal how an understanding of patterns in the past can guide policies and decisions in the future.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50265528729873,"sku":"CIN1934691151VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51334157730065,"sku":"CIN1934691151G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1934691151.jpg?v=1763117978"},{"product_id":"reimagining-indians-book-smith-9780195157277","title":"Reimagining Indians","description":"The winner of the 2002 OAH Rawley Prize for the best book on American race relations, 'Reimagining Indian' investigates an important group of Anglo-American writers whose books about Native Americans helped reshape Americans' understandings and appreciations of Indian peoples at the turn of the 20th century.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50405885509905,"sku":"CIN0195157273VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52131116187921,"sku":"NLS9780195157277","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0195157273.jpg?v=1750908836"},{"product_id":"search-for-the-hidden-garden-book-sherry-smith-9780819890504","title":"Search for the Hidden Garden","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50498433417489,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50498435744017,"sku":"CIN0819890502VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0819890502.jpg?v=1751108320"},{"product_id":"words-from-the-heart-book-sherry-smith-9781612151137","title":"Words From The Heart","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51039556174097,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51039558533393,"sku":"NIN9781612151137","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1612151132.jpg?v=1750830521"},{"product_id":"there-is-no-hell-book-sherry-smith-9781967209217","title":"There Is No Hell","description":"There Is No Hell is the book religion never wanted you to read.\nIt dismantles the fear-based doctrine of eternal torture through evidence, logic, psychology, spiritual insight, and the universal patterns of the soul.\nFor centuries, the concept of hell has been used as a tool of control - not a divine truth. This book exposes how a fabricated doctrine evolved into unquestioned belief, how mistranslations became threats, and how repetition replaced evidence. It reveals what every major field of spiritual study shows with absolute consistency: there is no eternal punishment, no endless suffering, no divine sentence handed down by Source.\nDrawing from historical analysis, cross-cultural records, translation studies, near-death research, metaphysical testimony, and the universal laws that govern consciousness, There Is No Hell breaks the spell of fear and returns the mind to its original freedom.\nThis is not rebellion.\nThis is clarity.\nThis is the removal of an illusion that never aligned with truth, love, evolution, or divine intelligence.\nThis book is written for the thinker, the seeker, the curious mind, the spiritually awakened soul, and anyone who knows fear is not the language of the divine.\nIt is a reclamation of the right to think, to question, and to return to what your soul always knew but was never allowed to say.\nThere Is No Hell is not an argument.\nIt is the undoing of psychological captivity.\nIt is the end of fear.\nIt is the beginning of freedom.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53689810518289,"sku":"NIN9781967209217","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781967209217.jpg?v=1781975574"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-gb\/collections\/author-books-by-sherry-smith.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
