By marrying out of their tribes/bands, these women either lose their Indian status or are unable to pass such status on to their children, and they have few legal tools that encompass their unique identities. The book concludes that the impact of indigenous women's legal mobilization should be assessed in terms of the potential for future democratic participation. Legal mobilization helps tame the effects of intersectional power only if it provides indigenous women new opportunities to redefine rights. 410 0$aLaw and society (New York, N.Y.) 606 $aIndian women$xLegal status, laws, etc$zUnited States 606 $aWomen's rights$zUnited States 606 $aIndian women$xLegal status, laws, etc$zCanada 606 $aWomen's rights$zCanada 615 0$aIndian women$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aWomen's rights 615 0$aIndian women$xLegal status, laws, etc. 615 0$aWomen's rights 676 $a342.708/78/08997 700 $aAks$b Judith H$01861113 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910971542803321 996 $aWomen's rights in Native North America$94467159 997 $aUNINA
