That the People Might Live: Native American Literatures and Native American Community by Call Number: eBookISBN: 9780195120370Publication Date: 1997-12-18Loyalty to the community is the highest value in Native American cultures, argues Jace Weaver. In That the People Might Live, he explores a wide range of Native American literature from 1768 to the present, taking this sense of community as both a starting point and a lens. Weaver considers some of the best-known Native American writers, such as Leslie Marmon Silko, Gerald Vizenor, and Vine Deloria, as well as many others who are receiving critical attention here for the first time. He contends that the single thing that most defines these authors' writings, and makes them deserving of study as literature separate from the national literature of the United States, is their commitment to the Native community and its survival.

Native American Stories (Collection)
The Four Key Connections - Luis Rodriguez
Native American Oral Storytelling & History - Seth Fairchild
Through this initiative we share the history of our people in their voice, as seen through their eyes. We focus on everyday lives of Choctaws through pivotal moments in history, exploring topics such as the Civil Rights movement, boarding school initiatives, and relocation efforts. We gather oral accounts of what it was like to be Native American through these times, from the stories that make us unique as a people to the everyday activities that universally bind all of us to one another. We use technology to preserve and share our unique story and wisdom that has come from these encounters.

NDN Girls Book Club
Kinsale Hueston is a student at Yale University, recognized widely for her work as a poet, much of which orbits around her personal and familial history as a Navajo woman. She has received three National Scholastic Gold Medals for poetry, the Yale Young Native Storytellers Award for Spoken Word/Storytelling, and in 2017-2018 was named the National Student Poet. In 2019, Time Magazine named Hueston one of the “34 Optimists Changing How We See the World,” and to converse with the poet is to understand why immediately: this 19-year-old sees true beauty in community, in sharing her own point of view through art and conversation, and in welcoming in the perspectives of others. This month, she’ll launch the Changing Womxn Collective, a digital literary platform that exists to uplift the marginalized voices of women, femmes, and nonbinary people of color—a platform she longed for prior to her own recognition.
