"Endangered Peoples of the Arctic: Struggles to Survive and Thrive" by Milton M. R. Freeman, Editor. Copyright © 2000 by Milton M. R. Freeman. All rights reserved. Reproduced with permission of ABC-CLIO, LLC, Santa Barbara, CA. Cree leaders and people struggle for the recognition from governments and corporations that they have rights to control their lands and future ways of life. Cree lives, culture, and economies are being rebuilt daily by collective efforts on the land and in the communities. The value of the land to all Cree unites their politicians, the Cree hunters, those Cree with steady jobs - most of whom who hunt part-time - and the growing number of Cree youth, most of whom envisage their futures as being based both in the villages and on the land.
