Tribal Laws, Treaties, and Government

The book explores the profound impact of broken promises made by white settlers to Native American tribes, particularly focusing on the Oglala Sioux Chief Red Cloud's perspective. Through historical analysis and personal narratives, it delves into the themes of land dispossession, cultural resilience, and the ongoing struggle for Native rights. The quote encapsulates the betrayal felt by Indigenous peoples as they confront the consequences of colonization and the loss of their ancestral lands.
