An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States

byRoxanne Dunbar-Ortiz

Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz uses An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States to investigate indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States through a carefully framed novel. The narrative identifies the people, decisions, and pressures that shaped the subject, then places those developments within the connected fields of history and juvenile nonfiction. Rather than isolating its subject, the book shows how private experience and public systems continually influenced one another. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
