Description: Red Power Rising : The National Indian Youth Council and the Origins of Native Activism, Hardcover by Shreve, Bradley G.; Witt, Shirley Hill (FRW), ISBN 0806141786, ISBN-13 9780806141787, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Shreve chronicles the origins of the National Indian Youth Council (NIYC) from its cultural and historical underpinnings in 19th century and early 20th century intertribal movements, through its trajectory and activities in the 1960s, and into its legacy with movements such as the American Indian Movement (AIM). The NIYC was a student activist group which possessed the same sense of urgency and purpose as contemporary student groups such as the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC) and Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), but differed from those groups in that it did not rebel against its elders but continued a long tradition of Native values. Those values included support for tribal sovereignty, support for continuation of traditional cultural activities, and the inclusion of women in important leadership roles.
