AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
This is a study of an American Indian social movement observed by the authors in Oklahoma from 1965 to 1972. This movement, called the Five County Northeastern Oklahoma Cherokee Organization, an example of the Red Power movement of the day, was observed by A. L. Wahrhaftig from a position rarely offered to ethnologists -- that of English language secretary to the organization. This document describes the function and organization of the Five County Cherokee Organization and its role in reestablishing and revitalizing Cherokee cultural ethnicity.
