Resources

The intention of this Special Collection is to promote cultural competency/humility supporting:

• collaboration between non-Native/Indigenous organizations such as national resource centers, state coalitions and community-based shelters, and similar Native/tribal organizations and programs
• tribal sovereignty as integral to the safety of Native women
• efforts ensuring Native/Indigenous survivors are provided appropriate advocacy
• educational and research projects involving Native/Indigenous peoples

This Special Collection is focused on non-Native/Indigenous advocates, policymakers and organizations, media, students and researchers. However, Native/Indigenous advocates and others will find information and resources helpful in their work addressing domestic and sexual violence, and social change and justice in the context of Indigenous culture, colonization and tribal sovereignty.

* Notes non-Native/ Indigenous author

• The Beginning and End of Rape: Confronting Sexual Violence in Native America, Sarah Deer
  • How to address widespread violence against Native women—practically, theoretically, and legally—from the foremost advocate for understanding and change. This book makes available the powerful writings in which Sarah Deer, who played a crucial role in the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act in 2013, has advocated for cultural and legal reforms to protect Native women from endemic sexual violence and abuse. These essays point to the possibility of actual and positive change in a world where Native women are systematically undervalued, left unprotected, and hurt.
• Sharing our Stories of Survival: Native Women Surviving Violence, Sarah Deer; Bonnie Clairmont; Carrie A. Martell
  • A general introduction to the social and legal issues involved in acts of violence against Native women, this book's contributors are lawyers, social workers, social scientists, writers, poets, and victims. The stories and case-studies presented are often painful and raw, and the statistics are overwhelmingly grim; but a countervailing theme also runs through this extremely informative volume: Many of the women who appear in these pages are survivors, often strengthened by their travails, and the violence examined here is human violence, meaning that it can be changed, if only with much effort and education.
• Introduction to Tribal Legal Studies, Sarah Deer
  • In clear and straightforward language, Justin B. Richland and Sarah Deer discuss the history and structure of tribal justice systems; the scope of criminal and civil jurisdictions; and the various means by which the integrity of tribal courts is maintained. This book is an indispensable resource for students, tribal leaders, and tribal communities interested in the complicated relationship between tribal, federal, and state law
• Not For Sale: Feminists Resisting Prostitution & Pornography, Christine Stark
  • Including the latest research on prostitution and pornography, this essay anthology shows how the sex industries harm those within them while undermining the possibilities for gender justice, human equality, and stable sexual relationships. From sex industry survivors to social activists and theorists such as Taylor Lee, Adriene Sere, and Kristen Anderberg, this volume addresses from a feminist perspective the racism, poverty, militarism, and corporate capitalism of selling sex through strip clubs, brothels, mail-order brides, and child pornography.
• *Conquest: Sexual Violence and American Indian Genocide, Andrea Smith
  • This book reveals the connections between different forms of violence—perpetrated by the state and by society at large—and documents their impact on Native women. Beginning with the impact of the abuses inflicted on Native American children at state-sanctioned boarding schools from the 1880s to the 1980s, Smith expands our conception of violence to include the widespread appropriation of Indian cultural practices by whites and other non-Natives; environmental racism; and population control. Connects these and other examples of historical and contemporary colonialism to the high rates of violence against Native American women—the most likely to suffer from poverty-related illness and to survive rape and partner abuse. Outlines radical and innovative strategies for eliminating gendered violence.
• Garden of Truth: The Prostitution and Trafficking of Native Women in Minnesota, Melissa Farley, Nicole Matthews, Sarah Deer, Guadalupe Lopez. Christine Stark, Eileen Hudon
  • This report reviews findings from an assessment of the life circumstances of Native women in prostitution in Minnesota, a group of women not previously studied in research such as this. Findings showed that about half of the women interviewed met a conservative legal definition of sex trafficking which involves third-party control over the prostituting person by pimps or traffickers. Yet most (86%) interviewees felt that no women really know what they're getting into when they begin prostituting, and that there is deception and trickery involved.
• Shattered Hearts: The commercial sexual exploitation of American Indian women and girls in Minnesota. Alexandra (Sandi) Pierce
  • This material examines trends in prostitution among Native American women, including age and mode of entry; the factors that facilitate entry, including intergenerational trauma and homelessness; and barriers to exiting the sex trade. Recommendations are provided for future action.
• Restoration of Native Sovereignty and Safety for Native Women, magazine, National Indigenous Women’s Resource Center
  • The Restoration of Sovereignty & Safety magazine is a publication dedicated to informing tribal leadership and communities of emerging issues impacting the safety of American Indian and Alaska Native women.  The name of the magazine, Restoration of Sovereignty & Safety, reflects the grassroots strategy of the Task Force that by strengthening the sovereignty of Indian nations to hold perpetrators accountable the safety of Native women will be restored. The magazine is a joint project of the NCAI Task Force and the National Indigenous Women’s Resource Center.  It is produced and made available during national NCAI conventions and the annual USDOJ – Tribal VAWA Consultation.
• *Reflections from the Field on Victim/Survivor Advocacy: Summary Report from an Advocates Roundtable, Office on Violence Against Women, U.S. DOJ Jan. 2017
  • Victim advocacy requires that advocates on-the-ground address the realities and needs of all survivors of domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence, and stalking at the individual, systems and community levels. To gauge the current state of advocacy, the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) convened a roundtable of 15 invited, community-based domestic violence, sexual assault, dating violence and stalking advocates on October 5-6, 2016 in Washington, DC. OVW convened this roundtable to hear directly from advocates in the field about current advocacy practices and trends in order to inform and enhance its training, technical assistance, and policy efforts.

  • Based on a synthesis of the empirical literature and original data analyses, this report presents an overview of the epidemiology of violence against American-Indian and Alaska-Native women as well as a review of the criminal justice responses to this violence
• *Maze of Injustice: The failure to protect Indigenous women from sexual violence in the USA; 2007, Amnesty International USA
  • The report, Maze of Injustice, released in 2007 unraveled some of the reasons why Indigenous women in the USA are at such risk of sexual violence and why survivors are so frequently denied justice. At the one year mark of the release of Maze of Injustice, there is significant, even historical, opportunity for change but there is also real danger that the follow through that is so desperately needed will not happen. It will require working together on all levels to fulfill the promises made. This update presents the main achievements of the past year in detail and identifies urgent priorities going forward.
• *Attorney General’s Advisory Committee on American Indian and Alaska Native Children Exposed to Violence: Ending Violence So Children Can Thrive 
  • Highlights the recommendations of the Attorney’s General’s Advisory Committee on American Indian and Alaska Native Children Exposed to Violence.

Published in 2014.

  • This brochure includes key terms and definitions, highlights the prevalence of violence against Native LGBTQ/Two-Spirit individuals, and offers tips for supporting Native LGBTQ/Two-Spirit survivors of domestic and sexual violence.
• Intergenerational Trauma: Understanding Natives’ Inherited Pain, Mary Annette Pember
  • While it’s important to acknowledge the neurological causes of inherited trauma, author Mary Annette Pember, an accomplished journalist who has spent many years reporting on the concept, also understands – from personal experience – the actual life events that can impact every generation of American Indians. In this Free Report [Indian Country Today], she helps put a human face on abstract theory and practice, sharing personal stories that are gritty, poignant and factual.

• *Uneven Ground: American Indian Sovereignty and Federal Law, David E. Wilkins and K. Tsianina Lomawaima
  • In the early 1970s, the federal government began recognizing self-determination for American Indian nations. As sovereign entities, Indian nations have been able to establish policies concerning health care, education, religious freedom, law enforcement, gaming, and taxation. Yet these gains have not gone unchallenged. Starting in the late 1980s, states have tried to regulate and profit from casino gambling on Indian lands. Treaty rights to hunt, fish, and gather remain hotly contested, and traditional religious practices have been denied protection. Tribal courts struggle with state and federal courts for jurisdiction. David E. Wilkins and K. Tsianina Lomawaima discuss how the political rights and sovereign status of Indian nations have variously been respected, ignored, terminated, and unilaterally modified by federal lawmakers as a result of the ambivalent political and legal status of tribes under western law.

Step two of the tool kit provides a breakdown of proper terms, grammar and common misconceptions. Step three, the ultimate goal of the Indigenous ally toolkit, is to have allies absorb the knowledge within, and then take action.
