Treaty shirts : October 2034 - a familiar treatise on the White Earth Nation  Cover Image Book Book

Treaty shirts : October 2034 - a familiar treatise on the White Earth Nation / Gerald Vizenor.

Summary:

In an imagined future, seven natives are exiled from federal sectors that have replaced federal reservations; they pursue the liberty of an egalitarian government on an island in Lake of the Woods. These seven narrators, known only by native nicknames, are related to characters in Vizenors other novels and stories. Vizenor was the principal writer of the Constitution of the White Earth Nation, and this novel is a rich and critical commentary on the abrogation of the treaty that established the White Earth Reservation in 1867, and a vivid visualization of the futuristic continuation of the Constitution of the White Earth Nation, in 2034.
