In 1961, the U.S. government terminated the Menominee Indians’ federal status as a recognized tribe, including rights to a self-governed reservation. The Menominees were not the only tribe subject to this injustice; the government’s action was part of its larger policy of termination, which aimed to assimilate all Native Americans into larger American society. For the Menominees, as well as for other tribes, the result was devastating; in addition to their loss of land, Native peoples lost their livelihoods, assets, and very identities. In Menominee Drums, Nicholas C. Peroff explains how termination evolved and how it affected the Menominees. He also tells the astounding story of how the termination was reversed. Through an organized campaign called DRUMS, the tribe was able to regain its status of federal recognition.

During the 1950s and 1960s the Menominee were casualties of the Federal Termination Policy; stripped of all ties to the U.S. government, the Menominee people, economy, and environment suffered great consequences. In 1970, Determination of Rights and Unity for Menominee Shareholders (DRUMS) emerged as an activist organization in opposition to Termination and the Menominee governing elite controlling Menominee Enterprises Inc. (MEI), the tribe's political voice, and its assets. In similar fashion to the American Indian Movement (AIM), DRUMS protested, published newsletters, and spoke out against MEI. In contrast to AIM, DRUMS struggled for cultural preservation through reform of federal policy and was lead primarily by women. Three women: Ada Deer, Sylvia Wilber, and Shirley Daly aided in devising and executing a diplomatic strategy of federal lobbying, democratic election, and public protest. DRUMS formed inter-organizational linkages, and infiltrated institutional establishments to affect change through democratically representative channels. Research of extensive primary material available on this subject including news clippings, meeting minutes, financial documents, legislative studies, personal correspondence, and referendums, confirms that DRUMS, while similar to AIM, was composed of a distinct grassroots demographic of women who re-constructed methods of resistance utilized by the dominant society to ensure survivance. Furthermore, evidence should explicate DRUMS as a noteworthy activist group led publicly and politically by women such as Ada Deer, Sylvia Wilber, and Shirley Daly, and that the women of DRUMS deserve credit for their contribution to the end of the termination era in federal Indian policy in the 1970s.

Drawing on meticulous archival research and a close working relationship with the Menominee Historic Preservation Department, David R. M. Beck picks up where his earlier work, Siege and Survival: History of the Menominee Indians, 1634?1856, ended. The Struggle for Self-Determination begins with the establishment of a small reservation in the Menominee homeland in northeastern Wisconsin at a time when the Menominee economic, political, and social structure came under aggressive assault. For the next hundred years the tribe attempted to regain control of its destiny, enduring successive policy attacks by governmental, religious, and local business sources. ø The Menominee?s rich forests became a battleground on which they refused to cede control to the U.S. government. The struggle climaxed in the mid-twentieth century when the federal government terminated its relationship with the tribe. Throughout this time the Menominee fought to maintain their connection to their past and to regain control of their future. The lessons they learned helped them through their greatest modern disaster?termination?and enabled them to reconstruct a government and a reservation as the twentieth century drew to a close. The Struggle for Self-Determination reinterprets that story and includes the viewpoint of the Menominee in the telling of it.

"Everything you know about Indians is wrong." As the provocative title of Paul Chaat Smith's 2009 book proclaims, everyone knows about Native Americans, but most of what they know is the fruit of stereotypes and vague images. The real people, real communities, and real events of indigenous America continue to elude most people. The Oxford Handbook of American Indian History confronts this erroneous view by presenting an accurate and comprehensive history of the indigenous peoples who lived-and live-in the territory that became the United States. Thirty-two leading experts, both Native and non-Native, describe the historical developments of the past 500 years in American Indian history, focusing on significant moments of upheaval and change, histories of indigenous occupation, and overviews of Indian community life. The first section of the book charts Indian history from before 1492 to European invasions and settlement, analyzing US expansion and its consequences for Indian survival up to the twenty-first century. A second group of essays consists of regional and tribal histories. The final section illuminates distinctive themes of Indian life, including gender, sexuality and family, spirituality, art, intellectual history, education, public welfare, legal issues, and urban experiences. A much-needed and eye-opening account of American Indians, this Handbook unveils the real history often hidden behind wrong assumptions, offering stimulating ideas and resources for new generations to pursue research on this topic.
