We Have The Right To Exist, back cover
 WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO EXIST

Now is the time to set the record straight.  The book: We Have The Right To Exist, is well written, well-researched, a very thorough and sensible approach to the relationship now enjoyed only by the Federal Government with the Indian Tribes.  The Indian Tribes have been exploited and manipulated since discovery that they lose their rights to whatever purpose the federal bureaucracy has in mind.  Indian is an exploitation word right along with the official designations of the Indian tribes.  To change this, it will take a concerted effort by all the Native Americans.  This book is the first step.

This is a fierce book, fiercely written, with a truth telling that pierces the heart of the reader.

from the Foreword

This study of aboriginal indigenous thought should be read, studied, and pondered by anyone who cares about the civilization and culture of the conquerors, and about the possibilities of human existence, thought, and creative experiences that have been marginalized and suppressed--not to speak of the terrible fate of the victims themselves.  It is a remarkable contribution.
-- Noam Chomsky

This book is based on the oral tradition of the Ahnishinahbæótjibway, and on what my people are saying now.  It is supported by ten years of intensive research into the White man's own documents relating to the history and genealogy of Red Lake Reservation, and by my lifetime of striving to understand the social fabric, values, ideals, language, and economic system of the people who call themselves Americans.
