Oklahoma Choctaw scholar Devon Abbott Mihesuah offers a frank and absorbing look at the complex, evolving identities of American Indigenous women today, their ongoing struggles against a centuries-old legacy of colonial disempowerment, and how they are seen and portrayed by themselves and others. Mihesuah first examines how American Indigenous women have been perceived and depicted by non-Natives, including scholars, and by themselves. She then illuminates the pervasive impact of colonialism and patriarchal thought on Native women's traditional tribal roles and on their participation in academia. Mihesuah considers how relations between Indigenous women and men across North America continue to be altered by Christianity and Euro-American ideologies. Sexism and violence against Indigenous women has escalated; economic disparities and intratribal factionalism and "culturalism" threaten connections among women and with men; and many women suffer from psychological stress because their economic, religious, political, and social positions are devalued. In the last section, Mihesuah explores how modern American Indigenous women have empowered themselves tribally, nationally, or academically. Additionally, she examines the overlooked role that Native women played in the Red Power movement as well as some key differences between Native women feminists and activists.

They work really well!
Size: 50 Count (Pack of 1)
These makeup removers work great for taking off my makeup. I always wash my face after with a professional skin care line with microfiber cloths, so if you are looking for something to do all the things, maybe they aren't for you, but I need something to remove makeup, and they do the best job!

Best make up removing wipes.
Size: 50 Count (Pack of 1)
These are the only makeup removing wipes I can use. They don’t burn my eyes and they remove the makeup very well. I do recommend staring them upside down so that the pads that are at the other end stay moist and are able to remove the make up without any issue. Highly recommend. Durable and don’t tear. Great product. Great price point. I have them on a subscribe and save.

Disappointed with these cleansing cloths!
Size: 50 Count (Pack of 1)
The cloths are nice and soft, however it’s very difficult to pull out just 1 sheet, I usually end up pulling several sheets and they cannot be put back in the container. This is just a waste of money and I will never buy them again!

These are my favorite makeup remover wipes! I have them on subscribe and save because I use them every night. They are super effective and leave a moisturizing sheen on your face after cleansing. Highly effective!

Great for Recovery Nights, Unscented and Budget Friendly
At 52 with combination skin, this cream is exactly what I need for deeper hydration, but not every day. It is rich and nourishing, so I use it strategically, mainly on recovery nights or when my skin needs extra support. It works especially well after retinol or exfoliation nights, helping to restore moisture and support the skin barrier. By morning, my skin feels soft, smooth, and well hydrated without irritation. Because it is a thicker cream, I prefer to use it once or a few times a week rather than daily so it does not feel too heavy on combination skin. Used this way, it performs very well. I also appreciate that Good Molecules products are unscented and very affordable, which makes it easy to build a routine that actually works without overspending. Great option if you want a richer moisturizer for targeted hydration and barrier repair.
