{"product_id":"ojibwe-activist-priest-tadeusz-lewandowski-9780299325206","title":"Ojibwe, Activist, Priest: The Life of Father Philip Bergin Gordon, Tibishkogijik","description":"Born in Wisconsin, Philip Bergin Gordon-whose Ojibwe name Tibishkogijik is said to mean Looking into the Sky-became one of the first Native Americans to be ordained as a Catholic priest in the United States. Gordon's devotion to Catholicism was matched only by his dedication to the protection of his people. A notable Native rights activist, his bold efforts to expose poverty and corruption on reservations and his reputation for agitation earned him the nickname \"Wisconsin's Fighting Priest.\"\u003cbr\u003e Drawing on previously unexplored materials, Tadeusz Lewandowski paints a portrait of a contentious life. \u003ci\u003eOjibwe, Activist, Priest\u003c\/i\u003e examines Gordon's efforts to abolish the Bureau of Indian Affairs, his membership in the Society of American Indians, and his dismissal from his Ojibwe parish and exile to a tiny community where he'd be less likely to stir up controversy. Lewandowski illuminates a significant chapter in the struggle for Native American rights through the views and experiences of a key Native progressive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tadeusz Lewandowski\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0299325202\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780299325206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Wisconsin Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/05\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 208\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.60h x 5.70w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eShelf Awareness\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/10\/2019","brand":"Tadeusz Lewandowski","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44057808797951,"sku":"9780299325206","price":28.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_075a4526-196f-4769-96a4-6609de804345.jpg?v=1685048988","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/ojibwe-activist-priest-tadeusz-lewandowski-9780299325206","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
