Women's roles in Southeastern tribes -- what were
the domestic responsibilities of women generally? Who cut wood? Who did the
farming? Were women ever warriors? We hear a lot about the importance of women
in Southeastern Indian society...well, did they ever have important political
roles -- historically & today? "Who was the Beloved
Woman?" Who is Wilma Mankiller & what did she do with a
name like that? Who leads the Cherokee now? What about marriage and sex in
traditional Indian women's lives? Who were the "trading
girls?" Lots of places for this one to go...
