FREEDOMWAYS      FOURTH QUARTER 1969

very early African explorers and settlers of the New World [the author doesn't know about those South and Central American archaeologists quoted in several of J. A. Rogers's book], through Negro-Indian relations as regulated or influenced by the Spanish, the French, the British and the Americans; the southern Indians before removal, Negro-Indian relations during and after removal; and the Civil War and Reconstruction in the Indian Territory. Despite the whites' policy of playing off Negroes by Indians, there were cooperation and brotherhood among southern Negroes and Indians. Well documented with a 10-page bibliography. This thesis should be published as a book with racist words like "half-breed" deleted.)

Collier, the late author, called one of the world's foremost authorities on Indians, was U.S. Commissioner of Indian Affairs from 1933 to 1945 when there was a so-called New Deal for Indians under the reform Indian Reorganization Act and the Johnson-O'Malley Act of 1934 which aimed to put an end to the allotment to whites of Indian land policy and to establish Indian self-government. The Navajos and 72 other tribes rejected the Indian Reorganization Act. One hundred seventy-two tribes accepted the Act.)
