 A Lifetime Journey filled with Injustice and Struggle
British Columbia, Canada (PRWEB) October 19, 2011 Xlibris, the print-on-demand self-publishing services provider, announced today the release of Almost A Born Loser! written by Annis Gregory Aleck. This book follows the engaging memoir of the author as he faces life as a Canadian-Indian and as a man whose wisdom is beyond his years.
The author narrates how Canada also tried to exterminate the Indians just like the USA attempted to destroy its native population, using subtle methods like diseases, starvation, Residential Schools and oppression. When the indigenous people tried to succeed independently to achieve progress for their society – the government hindered them and many Canadians would not employ them or treat them well when they were hired. Canada kept the facts hidden by concealing and distorting the truth. However, when the evidence became exposed there were denials, cover-ups and deceptive testimonies. In this blunt and honest autobiography, Aleck will reveal these issues and how the Canadian-Indians have to struggle daily against overwhelming odds to accomplish and succeed in their lives, nevertheless are prevented to work to their full potential.
Wrapped with just the right blend of humor, wit, and inspiration, Almost A Born Loser! provides a candid look at a lifetime journey filled with injustice and vindication, struggle and victory.
This book will be featured at the American Association of School Librarians Book Exhibit in Minneapolis, MN on October 26-30, 2011.

Top 3 Fashion Trends in Native American Jewelry from TurquoiseCanyon.com
(Vocus/PRWEB) March 25, 2011 TurquoiseCanyon.com presents their top 3 trends in modern Native American jewelry.
TurquoiseCanyon.com continues to discover new trends in Native American Jewelry. A continued surprise is the harmony that has been found between trendy new styles and the classic designs from decades ago. Native American Jewelry designs continue to evolve and transform creating modern and stylish designs that maintain a truly classic Native American esthetic.
For this story TurquoiseCanyon.com has highlighted 3 of their top new trends in Native American Jewelry.
1. Jewelry featuring modern cut opals mixed with classic stones are extremely popular and have found their way to the top of this list. Jewelry artists have begun to make bold statements by mixing the most modern of opal gemstones with classics such as turquoise and oyster shells. This combination results in jewelry that is colorful, fun and represents a trendy view of a classic style.
2. Petroglyphs are a contemporary throwback and represent the number two bestseller and most popular modern style. Petroglyphs are the canyon wall drawings of Native Americans dating back thousands of years. Their simple and easily recognizable designs have suddenly become as stylish as any other design from recent years. The shapes are cut out of sterling silver and applied to simple geometric backgrounds to form pendants, earrings, bracelets, and rings. Add a gemstone or two and you have a new look crafted with centuries old designs.
3. Santo Domingo necklaces with chunky stones round out our top 3 list. Although Santo Domingo necklaces have been popular for more than a century, the recent inclusion of large chunky stones into their classic designs have created a fun modish look that can stand beside any of the classic pieces.
TurquoiseCanyon.com opened its store in April of 2005 and specializes in enjoying the artistry and skill of all things Native American. From Native American Indian jewelry to kachinas and pottery, TurquoiseCanyon.com continually seeks to find Native American artists that represent both a classic and a modern view of Native American jewelry and culture.

Sonoma County, also known as the wine country, and its total of approximately 1,800 square miles was officially founded in 1850. However, the area’s scenic beauty, rich soil, hospitable year-round climate and easy access to ocean and river fishing as well as plentiful hunting grounds attracted inhabitants for many centuries. The Pomo, the Coast Miwok, the Patwin and the Wappo Indian tribes were its earliest known and documented inhabitants dating as far back as 8,000 BC. And these early Native American Indian tribes who enjoyed their prosperous lives in peace and harmony until European settlers, most specifically the Spaniards, arrived in the 19th century. The Pomo Indians … The Pomo Indians were actually comprised of seventy smaller tribes each with its own language and distinct territory within the region. What quite literally wove them all together was their art – the art of basket weaving practiced by both men and women. Everything about their life styles, their cultures and their livelihoods were directly connected to their baskets and revolved around their crafting. The seventy basket making tribes of the Pomo Indians all utilized similar materials, used the same techniques and derived at shapes which were quite alike. The Pomo Indians were invaded in the 18th century by brutal Russian fur-traders and, with the discovery of gold in 1848, by Americans. Their population was greatly reduced by murderous massacres, forced and debilitating labor as well as the white man’s diseases. Due to the American Indian Reservations and Trust Areas of 1996, today’s Pomo Indians acquired a federally protected reservation. The Coast Miwok Indians … The Coast Miwok Indians made the region that we now call Sonoma County home for over five thousand years until they were captured and forced into slave labor by early Spanish colonists at the close of the 18th century. From the 600 villages uncovered in the area, archeologists learned that the Coast Miwok had an extraordinarily abounding and intricate culture that included hunting for large game and birds, fishing, gathering of acorns and processing them, making baskets and beads, as well as ritualistic ceremonies that incorporated dancing and music. The language of the Coast Miwok Indians was unusually elaborate and extremely complicated. The Patwin Indians … The Patwin Indians are one of five other tribes (the Ululatos, the Libaytos, the Malacas, the Tolenas and the Suisunes) within the larger Wintum group who lived in the Sonoma Valley area for approximately four thousand years until they too were brutalized by the invading Spaniards in the 1800s. The Patwin Indians are best characterized as keepers and tellers of local myths, far-reaching legends, tall tales and oral histories of their own families and the community at large. The Patwins strongly believed that their spiritual leaders, the shamans, were able to speak with the dead and heal the ailing. The Wappo Indians … The Wappo Indians inhabited the general territory that is now Sonoma County and sustained their livelihood and rich traditions by hunting and gathering off the abundance provided by the land, and their beautifully crafted baskets were constructed so well that they could hold water indefinitely. The entire Wappo nation was forcefully baptized and absorbed into the various local Spanish missions.
