Search - Lakota Woman

While grammar errors abound and the story often seems disjointed, Crow Dog's true-life account of the AIM movement of the 70s gives a rare glimpse into a world not many try--or are able to--venture into. The prose is filled with emotion and while things never quite end up how the reader thinks they are going to, Crow Dog does provide an intimate portrait into the lives and treatment of a group of Native Americans.

A good perspectice of a woman in a culture very different than most people in America.

A disappointment. This contemporary biography of a Lakota Sioux woman who drifts into the AIM movement in the 1970s neither enlightens or inspires. Disjointed and emotionless, it's further flawed by sloppy editing.
