Necromancy is a can of worms.
Background: So, among other interests of my life, I count tabletop roleplaying games. They were something creative and fun I did with my mother a very long time ago, and are still fun today. One of the many I have played is Shadowrun, originally published by Fasa and later picked up by different companies.
Shadowrun is a semi-cyberpunk world set in the middle and latter half of the 21st century, all well and good, but it's also a world where there is magic.
The history of Shadowrun includes events that heralded the "return" of magic to the known world, along with changes to the life of the world, humans included.
One of these events is called the "Great Ghost Dance." They do not include the actual details of it, which was odd for me in my 20s, but now, knowing the real background of that ritual, and reading about it was one of the most heartbreaking things from a century full of them.
Part of the political landscape of Shadowrun is the return of much of North America to the ownership of the Indigenous people. It resonated with me then, but now... The end of the 19th century saw 98% of all of the 500 Tribes' population gone. Disease, famine and brutal violence had taken their toll on North America.
Near the end of the 19th century, many of the few Indigenous remaining participated in a large shamanic ritual, the Great Ghost Dance - it was supposed to bring the dead people back to them - it was a last act of desperation.
Shadowrun's world has an Indigenous world, full of people, vibrant and diverse, but the population of the remaining people with that blood is minuscule. So what happened? Did the ritual bring them back?
Necromancy is a can of worms.
Who did it bring back?
Sitting Bull? Cochise? Chief Seattle? Did it bring back those killed by the Spanish, French and English? Would it bring back more recent departures like Joseph Medicine Crow or Chief Dan George? Would it bring back my grandmother or my mother or my uncle?
And that's just the start of it.
If you talk about undoing genocides, you start opening the can of worms - Armenia and Europe. South America. Australia. Tibet. Every time some imperialists wanted a group dead.
Undoing death on a large scale's the grandmother of all game-changers.
But if we're talking about this magic thing happening in 2011, then...
I want my mother back, you son of a bitch.

Old Crow Medicine Show - Trim This Tree (Official Video)
“Trim This Tree,” an original from Americana stalwarts Old Crow Medicine Show, is a spirited, occasionally hilarious snapshot of Christmas in modern, overdeveloped Nashville: Sloshed reindeer ride by on a pedal tavern, the ornaments are exclusively from Dollar Tree, and, as the frontman Ketch Secor puts it in a Springsteenian croak, “In front of this Airbnb, there’s a Joseph and a Mary and Jesus all lit up like a Walmart.” Even in such environs, though, the group’s rollicking sound manages to rustle up some genuine down-home cheer.

Joe Medicine Crow, the legendary War Chief. Snuck into a Nazi camp in the middle of the night and stole 50 of their thoroughbred horses with a war cry.
Where is the blockbuster movie on this American hero? I think we need it right now.

So someone on my Facebook posted about Joseph Medicine Crow who passed away about a year ago, and I looked him up, and I highly recommend you do too because he was very accomplished and I'd never heard of him before: He was the last war chief of the Crow Tribe - a title that requires very specific achievements and leadership in battle. He was also the first member of the Crow tribe to earn a Master's degree (in anthropology - he was descended from witnesses to the battle of Little Bighorn, and was a respected expert in the topic and in Crow history). Joseph Medicine Crow was working on a PhD when WWII broke out and joined the war effort, at first working for the defense industry but eventually joining the army, where he earned his war chief title. He famously stole 50 horses from the Nazis. He returned and became a tribal spokesman, historian, and educator. He was given the presidential medal of freedom in 2009. There's also a Ken Burns documentary about his life, and he wrote a memoir, Counting Coup: Becoming a Crow Chief on the Reservation and Beyond, which I am going to check out.

The story of Joe Medicine Crow:
https://www.military.com/army-birthday/badass-of-the-week-joe-medicine-crow.html
At 102 years old, Joseph Medicine Crow-High Bird was the last surviving War Chief of the Crow Indians when he died in 2016. He is a hardcore, fearless, warrior who has accomplished all of these tremendous feats of bravery in combat and has proven himself a step above the majority of humanity.
During World War 2 he stole fifty thoroughbred racehorses from an SS officers’ camp. By sneaking in, mounting one bareback and corralling the rest while singing a traditional Crow war song.
All true stories.
Always seek Manliness!

Sorry I had to go looking through old emails to find the lists sent to me, the fiction section is my personal rec list of books I'm reading and authors I love. I always always insist anyone who wants to write Indigenous characters in their stories need to read Indigenous authors. Not just to show support, but you’ll not find a better teacher on ensuring you're not falling into racist tropes and tokenizing your characters than by surrounding yourself with beloved stories and characters from that demographic.
For non fiction I've separated culture, language, and lore from the ones that focus on regions, historical events, wars, and people.
I know I'm missing books, but I was sent a lot of recs in private messages I can't track down. Generally if you see a book by these three authors they are the #1 recommended resource from everyone I've spoken with.
C.A. Weslager
Anthony F.C. Wallace
Paul A. W. Wallace
Some of these books are very old so they'll have dated terminology, be out of print, and can be expensive (Red Men on the Brandywine goes for over $200) so I have not been able to read everything on this list. I know there are more than a few with ebooks available through libraries, and some ebooks. My goal is to one day have all these books as PDFs, even if I have to buy and scan them myself.
