Chew, Natalie G. Diaz, Wesley Y. Leonard & Louellyn White Dædalus Journal of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences Design for the hedge maze is by Johan Vredeman de Vries, from Hortorum viridariorumque elegantes & multiplices formae: ad architectonicae artis normam affabre delineatae (Cologne, 1615). Dædalus was founded in 1955 and established as a quarterly in 1958. The journal’s namesake was renowned in ancient Greece as an inventor, scientist, and unriddler of riddles. Its emblem, a maze seen from above, symbolizes the aspiration of its founders to “lift each of us above his cell in the labyrinth of learning in order that he may see the entire structure as if from above, where each separate part loses its comfortable separateness.” The American Academy of Arts & Sciences, like its journal, brings together distinguished individuals from every ½eld of human endeavor. It was char- tered in 1780 as a forum “to cultivate every art and science which may tend to advance the interest, honour, dignity, and happiness of a free, independent, and virtuous people.” Now in its third century, the Academy, with its more than ½ve thousand members, continues to provide intellectual leadership to meet the critical challenges facing our world.

Trahant, Loren Ghiglione, Douglas Medin & Ned Blackhawk Modern racism is the active writing of Indian people out of contemporary life. –Stephanie Fryberg The Supreme Court does not know even the very basics of Indian law. –Maggie McKinley Environmental researchers know that Indian people have important knowledge. But they think of it in terms of “the elders” rather than the twenty-five years of fisheries re- search carried out by the tribe. –Kyle Whyte What’s missing is not voices, but ears. University adminis- trators, government officials, judges, leaders of nonprofits– they don’t even know
