Abstract

The article in the Atlantic Monthly discusses the transformation of Vine Deloria Jr., a Native American activist and writer, in the 1960s. Deloria was part of a group of young Native American activists known as the "new Indians," who demanded that Americans honor treaties and recognize tribal sovereignty. Deloria's journey to becoming a writer and activist is highlighted, along with the impact of his book "Custer Died for Your Sins: An Indian Manifesto." The article also includes a photograph by Bruce Davidson depicting Deloria's writing space and the new force of Indian Country that emerged during that time. [Extracted from the article]
