"In these carefully and intriguingly rendered bio-histories of Native women, Sifters accomplishes just what its title implies. Sifters separates the life-sustaining kernels of historical truth about these women from the nutritionless functional chaff usually provided an audience unaware of itsinadequate diet. In their re-reading of these lives-of women we thought we knew, women we've genuinely misapprehended, and women we've needed to know-the book's authors also re-read and reframe significant moments in and ideas about Native history, American history."-Rayna Green, SmithsonianInstitution, "The biographies presented in Sifters are equally compelling and complex,each providing glimpses into the worlds in which Native women have made choicesabout their lives in the past 500 years...An important contribution to thegrowing scholarship on Native American women and would be an excellent selectionfor use in classes in Native American and Women's history."--H-Net, "Taken as a whole this book presents a well reasoned, well-researched account of a selected group of women that meets historians' and academicians' needs for information regarding specific American Indian women and their interactions with the larger socio-historical period as well as theconsequences of their existence in that larger framework."- J.

Synopsis
In this edited volume, Theda Perdue, a nationally known expert on Indian history and southern women's history, offers a rich collection of biographical essays on Native American women. From Pocahontas, a Powhatan woman of the seventeenth century, to Ada Deer, the Menominee woman who headed the Bureau of Indian Affairs in the 1990s, the essays span four centuries. Each one recounts the experiences of women from vastly different cultural traditions--the hunting and gathering of Kumeyaay culture of Delfina Cuero, the pueblo society of San Ildefonso potter Maria Martinez, and the powerful matrilineal kinship system of Molly Brant's Mohawks. Contributors focus on the ways in which different women have fashioned lives that remain firmly rooted in their identity as Native women. Perdue's introductory essay ties together the themes running through the biographical sketches, including the cultural factors that have shaped the lives of Native women, particularly economic contributions, kinship, and belief, and the ways in which historical events, especially in United States Indian policy, have engendered change., In the last few years, popular and scholarly interest in Native women has soared. In SIFTERS, the first volume in the new Viewpoints on American Culture series, Theda Perdue, a recognized Native American and women's historian, has brought together a group of scholars both junior and senior to introduce the reading public and students to the lives of Native American women through individual biographies. Ranging chronologically from colonial times to the present, geographically from New England to the Southwest, this volume includes essays on the well-known Sacajawea and Pocahantas, as well as Native women who made important contributions to American political history, social activism, and cultural achievement, and in the case of Ada Deer, continue to shape the place of Native Americans in the U.S.
