Oglala Religion

This study seeks to explain how one group of Native Americans, the Oglala Sioux, has preserved its social and cultural identity despite formidable attempts by the U.S. government to eliminate tribal societies. Treating continuity and change as two aspects of the same phenomenon, it focuses on the nature of the uniquely Oglala values that persist, their modes of cultural expression, and the processes by which they are replicated.Powers, William K. is the author of 'Oglala Religion', published 1977 under ISBN 9780803287068 and ISBN 0803287062.
