I am a historian who has teaches a course called "Native American Cultures."  I have been using Calloway's First Peoples for many years (since 2000) and before that I used Arnold Krupat, ed., Native American Autobiography: An Anthology as well as Major Problems in American Indian History but I want to reorganize the course to examine more contemporary issues (as well as their historical roots). 

In recent years, we'll read and discuss 19th century treaties and then we'll watch a movie like "American Outrage," which carries the discussion of treaty rights into the present, or we'll examine contemporary battles over fishing rights in the PNW, etc...
