Mehr zum Buch

Exploring the intersection of religion and activism, Andrea Smith challenges conventional views of social-justice movements by analyzing the dynamics between the Christian Right and Native American activism. She emphasizes the importance of biblical scripture, gender, and nationalism, advocating for a nuanced understanding of political strategy and alliance-building. Highlighting the potential of unexpected partnerships, referred to as "cowboys and Indians coalitions," Smith complicates traditional notions of identity and resistance within the context of social justice.
