Table of ContentsReviews“Intelligent, readable, and infused with wry wit, Joshua Clough’s close study of the rise and fall of the Society of Oklahoma Indians gives readers a glimpse of the beating heart of Native Oklahoma in the mid-1920s. The third leg of a triple alliance forged to reform exploitative economic practices draining Indian estates, the SOI was short-lived and inchoate as a political organization. Yet Clough’s case study of the SOI, detailing the emergent collective voice of Indian protest, is compelling because of the powerful forces dividing and suppressing Oklahoma Indians during a very fractious era.”—Tanis C. Thorne, author of The World’s Richest Indian: The Scandal over Jackson Barnett’s Oil Fortune “A prodigious amount of research yields a compelling account of the Society of Oklahoma Indians that focuses attention on the Indian Bureau, state-Indian conflicts, demands for the federal government to ‘fix’ problems of guardianships, probate, and corruption. . . . Certain Indian cries in the 1920s about ‘chaos’ in the state resonate today.”—Blue Clark, author of Indian Tribes of Oklahoma: A Guide Author InformationJoshua Clough is a lecturer in Native American studies at the University of Oklahoma.
