How two centuries of Indigenous resistance created the movement proclaiming "Water is Life"
Nick Estes is a citizen of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe and an Assistant Professor of American Studies at the University of New Mexico. In 2014, he co-founded The Red Nation, an organization dedicated to Native liberation.
The story of Indigenous resistance-its history, goals, forms, successes, and failures-is the book's backbone, which allows Estes to range broadly, illuminating how racism, colonialism, capitalism, genocidal policies, religious and cultural persecution, and vile stereotyping have marginalized, dispossessed, and impoverished Indigenous societies over the centuries. -- Pekka Hamalainen * New Mexico Historical Review *
