| |  This fascinating study of North American Indians portrays the history and culture of American Indian communities, exploring their traditions, religions, values and individual relationships with nature. Photographic images, illustrations, portraits, maps and live footage vividly display the regions where various tribal communities have lived over the centuries. Each program contains commentary from leading Native American scholars and contemporary tribe members who challenge the myths and stereotypes surrounding Indian culture even today. The series includes hard facts about Indian-white relations in the United States and Canada, and examines the role of women in Native American societies. | "  ...viewers get a chance to see cultural practices and hear native languages that contemporary Native Americans are struggling to save from extinction...these would be a boon to school and public libraries...recommended." - Video Librarian
