Native Hunting and Fishing
Practicing Traditions and Defending Treaty Rights
From the Series Native Rights (Alternator Books ®)
Indigenous Nations historically provided for their families and their communities by hunting, fishing, farming, and gathering. In the 19th century, the US government often forced Native Americans to sign treaties that ceded lands while protecting Indigenous rights to hunt and fish on those lands. But the United States government has not always upheld these treaties. Find out how Native nations continue to defend and exercise their rights today.

“A timely and essential series.”—starred, Booklist
School Library Journal
“While addressing historical atrocities and injustices, the focus is placed on the efforts to address these issues in the present day, emphasizing their ongoing relevance rather than treating them as events of the past . . . A compelling series that sheds light on the modern-day consequences of historical injustices.”—School Library Journal
