On my next offering, I would update both the reading lists, with more focus on Native authors, as well as films. Description Introduction to the study of non-Western religions, analyzing primal cultures and early civilizations using Amerindian examples, considering traditional (Ojibwa to Inca) and contemporary (American Indian Movement, Peyote Religion) phenomena and their interrelationships with Western religion. Canadian examples will predominate. The course will be divided into three parts. First, we will examine representative Native American religions prior to contact with European and Euro-American culture. In the second part, we will consider the effects on these religions of domination by the colonial powers. Finally, we will focus on responses to these deleterious effects, including the contemporary revitalization of Native religions.

http://www.op.org/DomCentral/library/native.htm

Extractions: Making Peace with the Past for the Future John Barry Ryan is Professor of Religious Studies and a member of the Peace Studies faculty at Manhattan College. His research interests include liturgical studies and American Indian religions. It is a Native American tradition to introduce oneself before one speaks. In that spirit, I begin with some steps in my own journey of listening to Native Americans. I acknowledge at the outset that for most of my life I did not listen, maybe could not listen. But for a decade now, I have been attempting to listen to Native Americans. "Attempting" is the appropriate word because I am very much aware that I bring preconceptions, hardheadedness, and lack of attention to the conversation. Even worse, Native Americans have taught me that I carry a much heavier burden. I view the world from the conqueror's point of view, which informs everything I do. I knew this intellectually, but in listening to Native Americans I understand more concretely and in some detail what it means. I only dared propose a course on Native American Religions because I had researched Navajo prayer forms for two papers that I presented, one in 1985 at the annual meeting of the North American Academy of Liturgy and the other in 1991 at the biannual meeting of

Medea's Chariot :: Wicca Is Not White Witchcraft
Article from a prominent Wiccan organization explaining the differences between paganism, new age, and native american spirituality.
http://www.medeaschariot.com/archive/version4/wicca/white.htm

Extractions: What may come as a surprise to many people who explore Wicca entirely for its occult aspects is that Wicca sometimes has nothing to do with magick. Although this is not the case for me, and most other Wiccans I know do not consider it the case for themselves, I would like to point out this distinction as further evidence that "white witchcraft" is neither an accurate nor suitable definition of Wicca. Not all Wiccans cast spells. They do worship a Goddess, in some traditions (such as mine) a God as well, and I suspect that all do ritual sooner or later. To give a parallel that might sink in, some Wiccans take a ceremonial approach similar to the Catholic Church, with women and a more pleasant view on birth control. Mature, informed Wiccans are NOT New Agers. We play nicely with New Agers, and some of their beliefs and ideas may interest us, but our defined philosophy focuses much more on dealing with the ordinary world and managing its sometimes harsh realities, while New Agers believe that the solution to life's problems is banishing negativity, and at least in my experience, paying a lot of money to do so. In the New Age movement you will find extensive focus on channeling, Angels, and external spirit guidance. Wiccans do call upon spirit guides and some do work with Angels and channeling, but it is not the main focus of our work by any means.

http://www.nhc.rtp.nc.us/tserve/eighteen/ekeyinfo/natrel.htm

Extractions: Teaching about Native American religion is a challenging task to tackle with students at any level, if only because the Indian systems of belief and ritual were as legion as the tribes inhabiting North America. So let's begin by trimming down that bewildering variety to manageable proportions with three glittering generalizations (which might, with luck, prove more useful than misleading). First, at the time of European contact, all but the simplest indigenous cultures in North America had developed coherent religious systems that included cosmologiescreation myths, transmitted orally from one generation to the next, which purported to explain how those societies had come into being. Second, most native peoples worshiped an all-powerful, all-knowing Creator or "Master Spirit" (a being that assumed a variety of forms and both genders). They also venerated or placated a host of lesser supernatural entities, including an evil god who dealt out disaster, suffering, and death. Third and finally, the members of most tribes believed in the immortality of the human soul and an afterlife, the main feature of which was the abundance of every good thing that made earthly life secure and pleasant.

Extractions: The Iroquois were actually not a people, but a federation of six Native American nations: the Cayuga, Mohawk, Seneca, Oneida, Onondaga, and Tuscarora. In terms of power, they were perhaps the most formidable Native American group in North America, and the most represented in the imaginative works of the European settlers, controlling at their zenith a territory covering Massachusetts to Ohio and Quebec and Ontoario to Kentucky. They are famous in the "captivity" literature, stories about the kidnapping of European settlers, of the early settlers and make their most forceful entrance into American history by siding with the French in the French and Indian Wars. These nations, like most Native American nations on the east coast, were largely exterminated by this century. Their stories, however, lingered in traditions passed along by a very small group of people; the creation story here narrated was recorded early in this century.

Extractions: Starrhawke, October 23, 2000 When you hear the word "shamanism," what images jiffy-pop into your mind's eye? Do you picture feather head-dresses, buffalo hides, medicine wheels and dream-catchers - images associated with Native American cultures? Contrary to popular opinion, a "shaman" is not an Indian medicine man, and "shamanism" is not a Native American religion. In fact, many Native Americans find the terms "shaman" and "shamanism" offensive. The word "shaman" actually originates among the natives of Siberia, where it describes a specialized type of holy person. The shamans of Siberia interact with deities and spirits not only with prayer, ritual and offerings, but through direct contact with the spirits themselves. With the aid of rhythmic drumming and chanting, the shaman enters a very deep or
