MasteringNative American Law is designed to provide readers with an overview of the field and serve as a useful supplement to classroom instruction covering Tribal nations governance and law, federal Indian law, and Tribal Nation-state government relations. In ten chapters, the book provides the reader with a foundational understanding of core concepts stemming from American Indian and Alaska Native Tribal Nations.

This third edition keeps pace with Tribal Nation legal developments in relation to policy, federal law, and court decisions, while it continues to fill a unique niche as a primary and secondary text for courses in the field. Updates are provided for key developments such as the recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions on the extent of criminal prosecutorial authority in Indian Country and the federal legislative authority for the Indian Child Welfare Act. The text also serves as a practical guide for Tribal law practitioners and lawyers that are looking to expand their knowledge of Native American law.

Throughout the text, explanations of the relevant interaction between the over 570 Tribal Nations, the United States federal government, and state governments are included in the various subject areas. In Chapter 10, "International Indigenous Issues and Tribal Nations," the significant evolution of collective rights in international documents is discussed in depth, as these documents have relevance for Tribal Nations in relations with the United States.

Suitable for Native American law courses, law school seminars on topics in Native American Law, undergraduate and graduate level American Indian and Alaska Native Studies classes, and those interested in the field, this book provides an easy-to-read text to guide readers from the historical to the contemporary on the major aspects of Tribal Nations law and policy.

Welcome to Native America: A History, published by Wiley-Blackwell in its third edition in August 2022, an introductory survey for courses in Native American History. The materials on this website will be useful to students and teachers who want to stay current with developments across Native America, read about exciting new scholarship in the field, and learn more about the topics they are studying in the classroom. Whatever your teaching or learning style, the materials here will complement the third edition of the book.

I have never been a fan of textbooks, which might seem like a strange thing for an author of one to write. I seldom used them in my classes, usually choosing instead to assign to my students collections of documents and monographs. They are big, expensive, and tend to sacrifice narrative and argument in an effort to be comprehensive and non-controversial. When the opportunity came along to write this book, I thought long and hard about whether I should undertake so massive a project. We tend to specialize as historians. Most of my previous work focused upon the history of native peoples in Early America, and always in the eastern third of the continent. The volume of scholarship in that chronological and geographic field alone is massive, and to broaden my reading and research to include the period after the Plains Wars and the rest of the United States seemed like a daunting task. But I am grateful I wrote Native America, and I am happy that I have been given this opportunity to produce a second edition. I look forward to opportunities to update the textbook in future editions as more and more scholarship in this exciting field appears. To that end, I invited Dr. Peter Jakob Olsen-Harbich to join me as co-author on this third, and subsequent editions.

Our goal was to write a textbook that we would like to read, that students would find interesting, and that complements what we do in the classroom. At Geneseo, I teach two general education courses in Native American history: The first is a survey course that follows the history from the earliest periods to the present, and the second a course that focuses on American Indian Law and current public policy debates in Indian Country. For both of these courses, Native America and the resources I have placed on this website are highly useful. I am happy to share with you what I do in the classroom.

If you click on the Manual for Instructors and Students tab, above, you will see materials keyed to each chapter of the text. Each contains a chapter overview, a set of recommended readings for students who wish to learn more about a given subject, a suggested list of online and other resources that can be assigned to supplement the text, a list of terms that students should be able to identify, and a list of suggested discussion and writing topics. These materials can be used to reinforce the materials in Native America or to serve as the basis for writing and research projects.

I post regularly at Bluesky (@michaell...@bsky.social), and I update the blog periodically with commentary on issues of relevance to students of Native American History. Please consider following me on Bluesky and have your students check the Blog.

I want to provide students and teachers with materials that they can bring to their class discussions, and to use the web, in a fashion, to keep the Native America as up-to-date as possible between new editions. My hope is that this website will supplement the book by providing students and teachers with up-to-date information on the scholarship in the field, material for current-events discussions that point to the continuing relevance of the history they have been learning about in the classroom, and the perspectives of a college professor at a small, under-funded, liberal arts college located at what was once the Western Door of the Iroquois Longhouse, and who has been teaching this subject for more than a quarter of a century.

We hope you find this third edition of value to you in your courses. We welcome any and all feedback and suggestions that you might have, as students or as instructors, for teaching Native American History. You can reach me @MichaelLeroyOberg.bsky.social on Bluesky or at my Geneseo email address. I would love to share your insights and your suggestions on this webpage. And if there is anything we can do to make your use of the textbook easier, please feel free to get in touch. I love teaching this subject, and love discussing it with my colleagues and with students. I look forward to hearing from you.

Greetings Mr Oberg , I find it very fascinating the interest that you are bringing into light of the on going situations that we face day to day . It is very honorable to have a knowledgeable person speak out nd let U.S. Citizens know the struggle that fight every day .

Professor Oberg,

I taught Native American Studies for many years in a Connecticut boarding school. Recently retired, I am looking into teaching NAS in the Maine State Prison. Trying to select appropriate readings for that population has been a challenge. Might your book be a viable option? Over the years. I have use a wide range of resources, coupled with a close personal relationship with Zuni Pueblo, NM.

I am a registered Native American (3/4 Cherokee). I teach a lot of Cherokee crafts and art at parks and schools in the Southeast. I like your site and would like to register but I cannot find a place to do so. Can I register?

Black Drama, now in its third edition, contains the full text of more than 1,700 plays written from the mid-1800s to the present by more than 200 playwrights from North America, English-speaking Africa, the Caribbean, and other African diaspora countries. Many of the works are rare, hard to find, or out of print. More than 40 percent of the collection consists of previously unpublished plays by writers such as Langston Hughes, Ed Bullins, Willis Richardson, Amiri Baraka, Randolph Edmonds, Zora Neale Hurston, and many others.

Each play is extensively and deeply indexed, allowing both keyword and multi-fielded searching. The plays are accompanied by reference materials, significant ancillary information, a rich performance database, and images. The result is an exceptionally deep and unified collection that illustrates the many purposes that black theater has served: to give testimony to the ancient foundations of black culture; to protest injustices; to project emerging images of the New Black; and to give voice to the many and varied expressions of black creativity.

The connection between popular culture and religion is an enduring part of American life. With seventy-five percent new content, the third edition of this multifaceted and popular collection has been revised and updated throughout to provide greater religious diversity in its topics and address critical developments in the study of religion and popular culture.
