  • Treaty Justice - The Northwest Tribes the Boldt Decision and the Recognition of Fishing Rights - cover

    Treaty Justice - The Northwest...

    In 1974, Judge George Boldt issued a ruling that affirmed the fishing rights and tribal sovereignty of Native nations in Washington State. The Boldt Decision transformed Indigenous law and resource management across the United States and beyond. The case also brought about far-reaching societal changes, reinforcing tribal sovereignty and remedying decades of injustice. 
     
     
     
    Eminent legal historian and tribal advocate Charles Wilkinson tells the story of the Boldt Decision against the backdrop of salmon's central place in the cultures and economies of the Pacific Northwest. In the 1960s, Native people reasserted their fishing rights as delineated in nineteenth-century treaties. In response, state officials worked with non-Indian commercial and sport fishing interests to forcefully oppose Native actions. These "fish wars" spurred twenty tribes and the United States government to file suit in federal court. Boldt pointedly waited until Lincoln's birthday to hand down a decision recognizing the tribes' right to half of the state's fish. The case's aftermath led from the Supreme Court's affirmation of Boldt's opinion to collaborative management of the harvest of salmon. 
     
     
     
    Treaty Justice weaves personalities and local detail into the definitive account of one of the twentieth century's most important civil rights cases.

    How to Deal with Difficult...

    We’ve all dealt with other people’s disruptive behavior in our lives. Whether it’s a demanding customer, a friend who constantly lies, or a coworker who keeps complaining, these things add to the stress of an already hectic lifestyle. That said, true to their name, difficult people are hard to handle even if you’re extremely calm before they approach you. However, there is always a reason for their behavior - and this book will help you reveal it. Likewise, understanding why they act the way they do may also help you answer another question. You’ll learn why it is so difficult to deal with them. After all, people with different socioeconomic backgrounds, cultural beliefs, and cognitive tools can get along just fine most of the time. So, why can’t you do the same with difficult people? 
    One of the reasons it may be so challenging to handle difficult people is the lack of a clear definition of what this term really means. Because of this, there isn’t a unified classification of traits. The number of difficult personalities varies depending on the definition. For the sake of simplicity, you’ll find them sorted into six universal categories. These are gas lighters, toxic people, narcissists, energy vampires, manipulators, and aggressive people. This book explains how each type is generally defined, its characteristics, and how to identify it.

    Sounds of Other Shores takes an ethnographic ear to the history of transoceanic stylistic appropriation in the Swahili taarab music of the Kenyan coast. Swahili taarab, a form of sung poetry that emerged as East Africa's first mass-mediated popular music in the 1930s, is a famously cosmopolitan form, rich in audible influences from across the Indian Ocean. But the variants of the genre that emerged in the Kenyan coastal city of Mombasa during the twentieth century feature particularly dramatic, even flamboyant, appropriations of Indian and Arab sonic gestures and styles. Combining oral history, interpretive ethnography, and musical analysis, Sounds of Other Shores explores how Swahili-speaking Muslims in twentieth-century Mombasa derived pleasure and meaning from acts of transoceanic musical appropriation, arguing that these acts served as ways of reflecting on and mediating the complexities and contradictions associated with being "Swahili" in colonial and postcolonial Kenya. The result is a musical anthropology of Kenyan Swahili subjectivity that reframes longstanding questions about Swahili identity while contributing to broader discussions about identity and citizenship in Africa and the Indian Ocean world.
