learning US History all over again

 Reading the extraordinary 2014 volume "An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States", by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz, is like a fresh breeze into your mind, causing a re-visioning of much of what we think we've learned about US History.

Although many of us can say we "know this", it's disturbing to learn the extent to which our society is built on the genocide of native people in the Americas, and has been for several hundred years. This is a book that may keep you up at night.
