Summary

Dennis Banks, an American Indian of the Ojibwa Tribe and a founder of the American Indian Movement, is one of the most influential Indian leaders of our time. In Ojibwa Warrior, written with acclaimed writer and photographer Richard Erdoes, Banks tells his own story for the first time and also traces the rise of the American Indian Movement (AIM). The authors present an insider's understanding of AIM protest events - the Trail of Broken Treaties march to Washington, D.C.; the resulting takeover of the BIA building; the riot at Custer, South Dakota; and the 1973 standoff at Wounded Knee.

The book is published by University of Oklahoma Press.

Critic reviews

"A compelling account of one of the most influential Indian leaders in the United States... this volume (is) an important addition to this history of Native American and civil rights movements in the United States. ( Publishers Weekly)
"For readers who can recall the spotty media coverage of these events, this powerful litany of AIM's accomplishments is especially provocative." ( Booklist)

Breaks my heart ❤ I wish I was alive to help them

Fantastic read, Amazing Man. Like John Trudell and Russell Means, this warrior was a prophet.
