5.0 out of 5 stars Stimulating contribution to Native American studies., August 7, 2000
This review is from: The Black Elk Reader (Paperback)
The Black Elk Reader contains a variety of old and new perspectives on the Black Elk Speaks vision entrusted by Nicholas Black Elk to John Niehardt in 1931. Both classic and contemporary essays are included as well as reflections by Hilda Niehardt on 1931 and 1944 interviews with Black Elk. The issue of cultural appropriation is thoroughly presented both by Francis Kaye and anthropologist Raymond Bucko in his annotated biography and guide, "Sources and Suggestions for Further Study of Black Elk and Lakota Culture." Although some of the selections may seem a trifle dated or ponderous and condescending in tone, sufficient respectful material is included to stimulate and appeal to students of Native American studies, anthropology, religion, and the general audience.
