Abstract
Revised edition of Occasional Paper #16 in the Fourth World Papers Program, published by the Center for World Indigenous Studies. The work provides a longitudinal analysis (1968–1991) of organizational development, ideology, tactics, and state-by-state activities of the Anti-Indian Movement, with a focus on Washington, Wisconsin, and Montana. Contents include a prologue, overview, findings, remedies, organizational histories, case studies (e.g., Washington Initiative 456, zoning jurisdiction, fishing rights), right-wing connections, and an epilogue, with references. Original print notes indicate copyright reserved by the publisher and availability as a low-cost pamphlet. The source text evidences OCR artifacts and typographical noise but preserves substantive content including organizational names, dates, and section headings.

It includes section headers, page headings (pages 1–6), references to U.S. policy documents (e.g., Helsinki-related reporting), and examples of tribal impacts. OCR-derived text shows spacing, hyphenation, and minor lexical errors (e.g., extra spaces around hyphens, misspellings).
