Choctaw Nation is a story of tribal nation building in the modern era. Valerie Lambert treats nation-building projects as nothing new to the Choctaws of southeastern Oklahoma, who have responded to a number of hard-hitting assaults on Choctaw sovereignty and nationhood by rebuilding their tribal nation. Drawing on field research, oral histories, and archival sources, Lambert explores the struggles and triumphs of a tribe building a new government and launching an ambitious program of economic development in the late twentieth century, achieving a partial restoration of the tribe's former glory as a significant political and economic presence in what is now the United States. An enrolled citizen of the Choctaw Nation who was reared in Oklahoma, Lambert describes in vivid detail what this nation building has meant for the Choctaw people and for non-Indians. Choctaw nation building has strengthened the tribe's ongoing efforts to defend their sovereignty and protect their rights to land, water, and other natural resources. It has also helped produce new ways of imagining, constructing, and expressing Choctaw identity. Yet, as Choctaw Nation also shows, Choctaw sovereignty--the bedrock of Choctaw empowerment--remains under threat, as tribal sovereignty is not only a bundle of inherent rights but also an ongoing, complex consequence of Native initiatives and negotiations on local, state, and national levels. In addition to wrestling with the topics of sovereignty, identity, tribal nationalism, and contemporary tribal governance, this book gives considerable ethnographic attention to tribal elections, non-Indians, urban Indians, economic development, and tribal water rights.

Bathroom shelving decor
Color: Black
This isn't made to hold weight. Mdf and metal. Still, made a statement in my bathroom. For me, it's worth the price. Just remember if you're looking for son to tug on, this isn't for you.

Bathroom shelf
Color: Rustic Brown
Shelf will do the job where you have limited space. I do not like the waal anchors. They will leave a hole in the wall you might be able to crawl through.

Great little product
These are nice. They look really good. Nice metal accents with real wood. These are great. They went together pretty easily too. Anyone could do it. The only complaint I had about these is that I had to predrill the holes because they had not gone deep enough at the factory. They had small dimples where the screws were supposed to go. I had to make them actual holes with my drill. Not too bad though. Other than that they are awesome. You could even lightly sand and paint these to be any color you wanted. The metal brackets would pop right out and could be easily reinstalled after the paint dried. I like them a lot. They might be a bit smaller than I had imagined but they are as advertised. If you line up 3 rolls of TP that’s about exactly how big they are. Hope that helps. Take care.
