"An important corrective to conventional narratives of our nation's history . . . . An accessible, engaging, and necessary addition to school libraries and classrooms. An excellent read, dismantling American mythologies and fostering critical reasoning about history and current events." -- Kirkus Reviews , Starred Review "This adaptation of An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States (2014) should be required reading for all middle and high schoolers--and their teachers . . . . There is much to commend here: the lack of sugar-coating, the debunking of origin stories, the linking between ideology and actions, the well-placed connections between events past and present, the quotes from British colonizers and American presidents that leave no doubt as to their violent intentions . . . . The resistance continues, and this book urges all readers to consider their own roles, whether as bystanders or upstanders." -- Booklist , Starred Review "Dunbar-Ortiz's narrative history is clear, and the adapters give readers ample evidence and perspective to help them to engage with the text. A highly informative book for libraries serving high school students." -- School Library Journal , Starred Review "Gripping, tightly written, and packed with facts traditional textbooks and historical accounts neglect to cover." -- Shelf Awareness, "An important corrective to conventional narratives of our nation's history . . . .

Synopsis
A young readers' edition of the first history of the united states told from the perspective of indigenous people, Historian Robin D. G. Kelley called it "the most important US history book you will read in your lifetime," and former Navajo Nation president Peterson Zah declared it "an indispensable text for students of all ages." Upon publication, An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States shattered our understanding of the United States as a land "discovered" in the "New World." This young readers' edition continues that re-education by accessibly challenging the Doctrine of Discovery, Manifest Destiny, and the myth of the US as a "nation of immigrants." Here, readers will learn about the ongoing Indigenous genocide often omitted from textbooks, the role colonialism played in forming the US, and the many ways Native Americans have actively resisted US imperialism for centuries. Fully adapted, the text includes discussion topics, archival images, original maps, recommendations for further reading, and other materials to encourage young people and readers of all ages to think critically about their own place in history. Spanning more than four hundred years, An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States for Young People radically reframes US history and explodes the silences that have haunted our national narrative. Book jacket., Spanning more than 400 years, this classic bottom-up history examines the legacy of Indigenous peoples' resistance, resilience, and steadfast fight against imperialism. Going beyond the story of America as a country "discovered" by a few brave men in the "New World," Indigenous human rights advocate Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz reveals the roles that settler colonialism and policies of American Indian genocide played in forming our national identity. The original academic text is fully adapted by renowned curriculum experts Debbie Reese and Jean Mendoza, for middle-grade and young adult readers to include discussion topics, archival images, original maps, recommendations for further reading, and other materials to encourage students, teachers, and general readers to think critically about their own place in history., 2020 American Indian Youth Literature Young Adult Honor Book 2020 Notable Social Studies Trade Books for Young People ,selected by National Council for the Social Studies (NCSS) and the Children's Book Council 2019 Best-Of Lists- Best YA Nonfiction of 2019 ( Kirkus Reviews ) Best Nonfiction of 2019 ( School Library Journal ) Best Books for Teens (New York Public Library) Best Informational Books for Older Readers (Chicago Public Library) Spanning more than 400 years, this classic bottom-up history examines the legacy of Indigenous peoples' resistance, resilience, and steadfast fight against imperialism.

Items was in at least as good a condition as described; it may actually be in better condition than described, as the book looks almost new and unread. Given the great condition of the book, the price was an exceptional value. Furthermore, I made contact with the seller with a query; and, they got back to me very quickly, and were able to answer all my questions. Overall, a great transaction. I would buy from this seller again. Thanks!
- l***i (231)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe book arrived as described and as pictured. It shipped quickly, but was shipped in only a plastic bag mailer, so not much protection. I will also forewarn, the seller does not answer questions about the specific condition of a book. I know because I asked if two different books had any writing in the margins and received the same pre-generated response both times declining to answer. Despite this, I would still recommend this seller if you are willing to shoulder that risk buying used books
