Spanning more than 400 years, An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States for Young People (Beacon) is a bottom-up history examining the legacy of Indigenous peoples’ resistance, resilience, and steadfast fight against imperialism. Written by Indigenous human rights advocate Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz and adapted by renowned curriculum expert Jean Medoza (and Debbie Reese), the book encourages general readers to think critically about their own place in history.
