Today in the United States, there are more than 500 federally recognized Indigenous nations comprising nearly three million people, descendants of the 15 million Native people who once inhabited this land. The centuries-long genocidal program of the US settler-colonial regimen has largely been omitted from history. Dunbar-Ortiz adroitly challenges the founding myth of the United States and shows how policy against the Indigenous peoples was colonialist and designed to seize the territories of the original inhabitants, displacing or eliminating them. And as Dunbar-Ortiz reveals, this policy was praised in popular culture, through writers like James Fenimore Cooper and Walt Whitman, and in the highest offices of government and the military. Spanning more than 400 years, this classic bottom-up peoples' history radically reframes US history and explodes the silences that have haunted our national narrative.

this book is totally biased. although the facts she presents are true they are one thread of a very complicated story. I did learn some things which have changed my understanding of US history. I recommend this book as part of a more complete study.

The world would be a better place if everyone in the US read this book and then discussed. You don’t have to agree, just open your mind and discuss. Thank you for providing this insight and historical point of view. I was reduced to tears several times while listening as this has made me question for the first time in my life what it means to be an American.

A MUST read

Amazing monograph and performance. However, the reader mistakenly states that President Charter pardoned Lt. Calley in the years following the My Lai Massacre, rather than Nixon.

Just one thing

this concise, comprehensive, and compelling book means you no longer have an excuse to be ignorant of the U.S.'s genocidal history. read it today. it's the responsibility of every American to learn about the atrocities that built this empire, and to learn about the violence against Native Americans that continues today. this book is a great place to start.

Impeccably organized, critical analysis of a dark past that we all have a responsibility to recognize. It is shameful that our school systems haven’t made more of an intentional effort to include this important perspective.

Required reading for all Americans

This is needed history that is not taught in schools. Great, great read. I hope to find more on our Native American history.

A great education!

Vital insight to our broken culture. Living in direct conflict with our own social ideals. Great Britain schooled US and we outstripped the teacher.

Race supremacy still taught and reinforced. We endorse the “me first mentality”. White washing our “great patriotic legacy”. With cult like fervor.

The atrocities of WWII were teased out of our own treatments of other peoples on our own soil.

The elephant in the living room is the rot of our inconsistent moral code. We are all in Indian Country and subject to slaughter and cruel elimination.

We are the legacy of crushing domination. Great great grandchildren of the pioneer, the Wild West, the gold rush and land grab. We are also the great grand children of the many Native Peoples.

Thank you for presenting the facts dispassionately and thoroughly.

Empire building erases all that came before. Practices that condone terrorism, separatism, destruction of resources, demoralization, the justification of collateral damage, assassination, murder and demoralizing cruelty.

The surviving children of these acts are still with us. We are thinking people. Our health on all levels depend on healing this. First we must acknowledge the facts of our own ugly history.
