Reviews
Religion and Culture in Native America serves as a nice primer for academics to utilize in their introductory course materials and for students to gain a good grounding in the vast oeuvre that is Native American Studies literature. Noteworthy and extremely useful are the maps provided by the author at the beginning of each chapter, which locate the tribal communities, nations, and groups discussed throughout the volume. I recommend this text to instructors and undergraduate students who are looking for a brief but useful introduction to more detailed course materials in Native American Studies., A critically important book in which readers are provided with powerful stories of how Indigenous peoples have sustained our cultures, communities, and sacred connection to place. In this challenging contemporary moment, Religion and Culture in Native America is a precious gift that can help all readers, Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike, critically understand the past and draw inspiration to build a better future., Religion and Culture in Native America is an indispensable addition to the literature, liberating varied Native American spiritual traditions from the tyranny of overtrodden themes found in standard religious studies texts written from a Western perspective. As a "starting place," each chapter ends with a list of references and recommendations for further reading, a springboard for teachers and students to explore rich (and neglected) insights from Indigenous researchers, writers, culture bearers, and those who work with them. . . it is a critically urgent introduction, demonstrating that without the ongoing protection and stewardship of Indigenous spiritual traditions, we risk losing our collective connection to our Mother Earth while inching ever closer to the end of the Anthropocene., The major contribution this new volume on Native American religious traditions makes is to discuss religious life in relation to the most pressing issues impacting Native America today. It is organized thematically and, importantly, centers land, challenging scholars of religion to rethink the relationship between the material and immaterial as well as the categories of analysis we've been accustomed to exploring., With Religion and Culture in Native America , Suzanne Crawford O'Brien, in collaboration with her doctoral mentor, Inés Talamantez, has produced one of the best introductory textbooks to Indigenous religion and culture in North America (primarily the contiguous United States and Canada)... Religion and Culture in Native America represents a mature collaboration between seasoned scholars that has produced a much-needed work for those introducing North American Indigenous religions and cultures to undergraduates... I deeply appreciate that this textbook opens with story and that stories, both ancient and contemporary, animate, illustrate, and saturate each chapter. The book begins with a creation story shared among tribes along the Columbia River that emphasizes humans' (inter)dependence upon the gifts and generosity of other living beings such as salmon, without whom humans are quite pitiful. I can't recommend this textbook enough for undergraduate and graduate settings., "Religion and Culture in Native America is an indispensable addition to the literature, liberating varied Native American spiritual traditions from the tyranny of overtrodden themes found in standard religious studies texts written from a Western perspective.

Synopsis
Religion and Culture in Native America presents an introduction to a diverse array of Indigenous religious and cultural practices in North America, focusing on those issues in which tribal communities themselves are currently invested. These topics include climate change, water rights, the protection of sacred places, the reclaiming of Indigenous foods, health and wellness, social justice, and the safety of Indigenous women and girls. Locating such contemporary challenges within their historical, religious, and cultural contexts illuminates how Native communities' responses to such issues are not simply political, but deeply spiritual, informed by sacred traditions, ethical principles, and profound truths. In collaboration with renowned ethnographer and scholar of Native American religious traditions In s Talamantez, Suzanne Crawford O'Brien abandons classical categories typically found in religious studies textbooks and challenges essentialist notions of Native American cultures to explore the complexities of Native North American life.
