“To the Indians it seemed that these Europeans hated everything in nature - the living forests and their birds and beasts, the grassy grades, the water, the soil, the air itself.”
― Dee Brown, Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee: An Indian History of the American West

@bmacDonald94 recommending David Treuer’s The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee (2019), a wonderful Indigenous-written history of Indigenous surthrivance since Wounded Knee in what’s currently called North America. I love Bury My Heart, which was timely, but must be read alongside the contemporaneous American Indian Movement, and beyond: Indigenous folks are here, thriving in knowledge and culture. Land back!
