"A powerful and much-needed contribution to the scholarship on Indigenous labor."-Chantal Norrgard, author of Seasons of Change: Labor, Treaty Rights, and Ojibwe Nationhood"O'Neill skillfully demonstrates how tribes and Native workers rejected the language of rights-based liberalism, instead firmly rooting their rights as workers and managers within the more durable protections of tribal sovereignty."-Kevin Whalen, author of Native Students at Work: American Indian Labor and Sherman Institute's Outing Program, 1900-1945
