As Long as Grass Grows: The Indigenous Fight for Environmental Justice, from Colonization to Standing Rock

byDina Gilio – Whitaker

Dina Gilio – Whitaker uses As Long as Grass Grows to investigate the Indigenous Fight for Environmental Justice, from Colonization to Standing Rock through a carefully framed historical account. Its account follows central actors and turning points while showing how the story reflects questions in the connected fields of history and nature. Specific examples keep the larger argument tangible and reveal why familiar explanations do not always account for the full story. What emerges is a nuanced account of the subject, its immediate consequences, and its wider meaning.
