Start with Roxanne Dunbar Ortiz’s “An Indigenous Peoples History of the United States” There’s also classics like Dee Brown’s “Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee” and Vine Deloria Jr’s “Custer Died for Your Sins”
For funsies, my qual exams were in
1) Native American History
2) 20th century US

I saw the cutest/nicest thing today- my 1st grader was in the school play and during the play one kiddo forgot their line and another kiddo leaned over and whispered the line to them so they could say it. So sweet 🥹

I served as one of the consultants for an NSF project previously funded on links between Ainu and Inupiat- the project was one of the many that got cancelled so I was only able to serve one year- heartbreaking
Thank you so much!!
Oh gosh Quyaana for the shoutout!
but in all seriousness another good way to honor Remembrance Day today would be to buy and read Holly Miowak Guise’s book Alaska Native Resilience about WW2 forced removal and internment of Unangax people from the Aleutians
It’s so scary
