Acerca de este audiolibro

Charles Alexander Eastman tries to bring out what he believes are the salient point in Native American religion, the misrepresentation and misunderstanding by the “white man”.

Eastman makes some good point, regarding the hypocrisy of the white man’s Christianity, specially arising out of the expression presented to the Indian that the American Government was Christian. As author says, The Indian, might in time come to recognize that the drunkard and the licentious among white men, with whom he too frequently came in contact, were condemned by the white man’s religion as well and must not be held to discredit it.

In this audiobook the author explain that any murderer knew that his deed would be known by the “Great mystery” and so no effort was extended by such a person to try to hide the fact of the deed consequently, the action was normally freely admitted by the guilty party.


Acerca del autor

Charles Alexander Eastman (born Hakadah and later named Ohiyesa; February 19, 1858 – January 8, 1939, Santee Dakota) was a physician educated at Boston University, and the first Native American to be certified in Western medicine. He was a writer, national lecturer, and reformer. In the early 20th century, he was "one of the most prolific authors and speakers on Sioux ethnohistory and American Indian affairs."[3] Eastman was of Santee Dakota, English and French ancestry. After working as a physician on reservations in South Dakota, he became increasingly active in politics and issues on Native American rights. He worked to improve the lives of youths, and founded thirty-two Native American chapters[4] of YMCA. He also helped found the Boy Scouts of America. He is considered the first Native American author to write American history from the Native American point of view.
