The American Indians as Slaveholders and Secessionists - Enriched edition

Annie Heloise Abel

Summary

Annie Heloise Abel's 'The American Indians as Slaveholders and Secessionists' is a groundbreaking analysis of the role played by Native American tribes in the antebellum South. Through meticulous research and compelling narrative, Abel examines how Native American tribes in the southeastern United States not only owned slaves but also actively supported the secessionist movement. Abel's writing style is scholarly and thorough, providing readers with a wealth of historical context and insight into the complex dynamics of race, power, and identity in pre-Civil War America. This book sheds new light on a little-known aspect of American history and challenges readers to rethink the traditional narratives of slavery and secession. Annie Heloise Abel, a pioneering historian and expert on Native American history, brings a unique perspective to the subject matter, drawing on her extensive knowledge and research to present a compelling argument. With meticulous attention to detail and a deep understanding of the complexities of race and identity, Abel's work is essential reading for anyone interested in the intersections of Native American and African American history in the United States. I highly recommend 'The American Indians as Slaveholders and Secessionists' to scholars, students, and general readers alike who are seeking a deeper understanding of America's complex past.

Do Your Own Thing

Richard Phoenix

Do Your Own Thing is a full-length work of non-fiction from artist and musician Richard Phoenix detailing his experiences of the best underground arts scene you've never heard of——Do Your Own Thing, a project run by learning disability arts organisation Heart n Soul.

Looking at the transformative potential of working to support creative young people make the music and art they want to, this book contributes essential new voices, reflections and considerations to the established ideas of 'Do It Yourself' culture. Phoenix's book, written with a disarming and idiosyncratic voice, asks what our often reductive understanding of DIY aesthetics might mean in light of questions about access, support and who gives permission to whom to make art, guiding us through the kind of project only spoken about in funding reports and transforming it into a polyphonic, collaborative and joyful work of art.
