Historia
The received idea of Native American history - as promulgated by books like Dee Brown's mega-bestselling 1970 Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee - has been that American Indian history essentially ended with the 1890 massacre at Wounded Knee. Not only did 150 Sioux die at the hands of the US Cavalry, the sense was, but Native civilization did as well. Growing up Ojibwe on a reservation in Minnesota, training as an anthropologist, and researching Native life past and present for his nonfiction and novels, David Treuer has uncovered a different narrative.

Historia
Anton Treuer has been at the forefront of the battle to revitalize Ojibwe for many years. In this impassioned argument, he discusses the interrelationship between language and culture, the problems of language loss, strategies and tactics for resisting, and the inspiring stories of successful language warriors. He recounts his own sometimes hilarious struggle to learn Ojibwe as an adult, and he depicts the astonishing success of the language program at Lac Courte Oreilles, where a hundred children now speak Ojibwe as their first language.

In Native American DNA, Kim TallBear shows how DNA testing is a powerful - and problematic - scientific process that is useful in determining close biological relatives. But tribal membership is a legal category that has developed in dependence on certain social understandings and historical contexts, a set of concepts that entangles genetic information in a web of family relations, reservation histories, tribal rules, and government regulations.

The construct of race has always been used to gain and keep power, to create dynamics that separate and silence. This remarkable reimagining of Dr. Ibram X. Kendi's National Book Award-winning Stamped from the Beginning reveals the history of racist ideas in America, and inspires hope for an antiracist future. It takes you on a race journey from then to now, shows you why we feel how we feel, and why the poison of racism lingers. It also proves that while racist ideas have always been easy to fabricate and distribute, they can also be discredited.

Resumen del Editor
"I had a profoundly well-educated Princetonian ask me, 'Where is your tomahawk?' I had a beautiful woman approach me in the college gymnasium and exclaim, 'You have the most beautiful red skin.' I took a friend to see Dances with Wolves and was told, 'Your people have a beautiful culture.'...I made many lifelong friends at college, and they supported but also challenged me with questions like, 'Why should Indians have reservations?'"
What have you always wanted to know about Indians? Do you think you should already know the answers-or suspect that your questions may be offensive? In matter-of-fact responses to over 120 questions, both thoughtful and outrageous, modern and historical, Ojibwe scholar and cultural preservationist Anton Treuer gives a frank, funny, and sometimes personal tour of what's up with Indians, anyway.
White/Indian relations are often characterized by guilt and anger. Everything You Wanted to Know about Indians but Were Afraid to Ask cuts through the emotion and builds a foundation for true understanding and positive action.

From a failed state with no democratic tradition, ruined and partitioned by war, and sapped by a half-century of colonial rule, South Korea transformed itself in just 50 years into an economic powerhouse and a democracy that serves as a model for other countries. With no natural resources and a tradition of authoritarian rule, Korea managed to accomplish a second Asian miracle.

Historia
On March 29, 1516, the city council of Venice issued a decree forcing Jews to live in il geto - a closed quarter named for the copper foundry that once occupied the area. The term stuck. In this sweeping and original interpretation, Mitchell Duneier traces the idea of the ghetto from its beginnings in the 16th century and its revival by the Nazis to the present. As Duneier shows, we cannot understand the entanglements of race, poverty, and place in America today without recalling the history of the ghetto in Europe, as well as later efforts to understand the problems of the American city.

In How We Can Win, Jones delves into the impacts of systemic racism and reveals how her formative years in Chicago gave birth to a lifelong devotion to justice. Here, in a vital expansion of her declaration, she calls for Reconstruction 2.0, a multilayered plan to reclaim economic and social restitutions - those restitutions promised with emancipation but blocked, again and again, for more than 150 years. And, most of all, Jones delivers strategies for how we can effect change as citizens and allies while nurturing ourselves in the fight against a system that is still rigged.

The Inconvenient Indian is at once a “history” and the complete subversion of a history - in short, a critical and personal meditation that the remarkable Thomas King has conducted over the past 50 years about what it means to be “Indian” in North America. Rich with dark and light, pain and magic, this book distills the insights gleaned from that meditation, weaving the curiously circular tale of the relationship between non-Natives and Natives in the centuries since the two first encountered each other.

Among the unsettling social shifts in the wake of 9/11 was the global attention paid to Islam. Here in the United States, we became divided, often sadly along partisan lines, between those who believed every Muslim was a potential threat and those who believed no Muslim could do wrong. For conservative Wisconsin native and former U.S. Navy lieutenant commander Dr. M. Zuhdi Jasser, these radical times meant facing a new reality as a devout Muslim and a patriot - a certain betrayal within his faith.

Now that notion is being challenged, as white people wrestle with what it means to be part of a fast-changing, truly multicultural nation. Facing chronic economic insecurity, a popular culture that reflects the nation's diverse cultural reality, and a future in which they will no longer constitute the majority of the population, and with a black president in the White House, whites are growing anxious.

Forcibly returned to his parents after three years, Korn never adjusted to life in white society. He spent his last years living in a cave, all but forgotten by his family. That is, until Scott Zesch stumbled upon his great-great-great-uncle's grave. Determined to understand how such a "good boy" could have become Indianized so completely, Zesch traveled across the West.

He recounts his own sometimes hilarious struggle to learn Ojibwe as an adult, and he depicts the astonishing success of the language program at Lac Courte Oreilles, where a hundred children now speak Ojibwe as their first language.

A must read for Minnesotans (like me).
Anton Treuer does a fantastic job at answering every question that I had and could have had . I listened to this book for an education related course at Bemidji State University, where Dr. Treuer works. I'm from the same (general) area that the author is from. The amount of stuff that once can be ignorant of whilst being friends, coworkers, and classmates with people who've grown up and are from American Indian backgrounds surprised me. I strongly recommend this to anyone who has, will, or wants to spend any amount of time in Minnesota, particularly Northern Minnesota.
The narrator sounds Minnesotan to me. It's rare to hear someone with a familiar accent in any form of media. That was much apricated.
Overall, this is very well done. 10/10

Honest.Straightforward.Informative
This is a great book to introduce people to lives, history and hardships of native peoples. I wish I could merely say it was great for youth and the socially awkward, but we have far too many in the general population who could benefit from these bits of information. From the relatively benign instances like the questions in the blurb, to the more blatantly rationalizations regarding perceived preferential treatment of Indians and use of Indian mascots, the book provides valuable, common sense responses.
If nothing else, the casual reader, perhaps unaware of in-depth native history from an Indian perspective, may have their eyes opened by simple observations. It spurred my imagination. For example, if I don't see people in Scotland painted blue like Mel Gibson, have I never seen a true Scot? Or if I visit France, how long will it take to find a true Frenchman, dressed in a musketeer tabard holding a rapier like D'artagnan? I have to admit, I had never quite thought about it like that. Historical and/or fictionalized accounts do seem to hold sway, and I admit to a tendency of romanticizing the likes of Sacagawea and Crazy Horse, myself. This was good for me to see, even as someone who loves and devours everything I can find regarding native culture. Similarly, I feel less and less inclined to tolerate the attempts to justify native sports mascots, chants and chops. I've never really liked them, but feel more compelled to actively oppose them.
There is the slight bit of wobbly rationalizing near the end, regarding casinos and free college rides for Indian youth. I am thoroughly in the native camp on these modern issues, but the "life isn't always fair" line falls a bit flat for me, I have to say. I wish the author had done a bit more with those responses.
All in all, a really good listen. I wish that I'd picked it up earlier. Perhaps feeling so sympathetic to the Indian cause, I thought it was too simple for the likes of me. I was wrong, I still could learn. And it is good for kids and the socially awkward to hear/read, as well.

Wow!! Insightful and Informative
Very raw and honest! Provides true exposure to the history of US Indians. Brings great light to many issues/hardships that seem to be ignored in school. Love it.

Great info
This book is an amazing place to learn about a culture that has been fiercely neglected in this society. It's both a great place to start and a great place to refresh. Highly recommended!

bit sized truth bits are good ear-fit
This book has class. As a mixed Native person raised off the rez I actually needed to hear some of this for my own self-awareness. These are the talking points Indigenous people find themselves explaining time and time again. Excellent framing of a tough topic. grateful for this book.

So informative!!!!
Informative book, which touches on many topics, history and misconceptions. Paves the way for a deeper understanding and appreciation of the vast Indian cultures of the US (and Canada) and even a bit of what non-Indians can do to create better relationships. I recommend this book!
