The first history of the United States told from the
perspective of indigenous peoples
Today in the United States, there are more than five hundred
federally recognized Indigenous nations comprising nearly three
million people, descendants of the fifteen 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. Now, for the first time,
acclaimed historian and activist Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz offers
a history of the United States told from the perspective of
Indigenous peoples and reveals how Native Americans, for
centuries, actively resisted expansion of the US empire.
In An Indigenous Peoples’ History of the United States,
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. Shockingly, as the genocidal policy reached its
zenith under President Andrew Jackson, its ruthlessness was
best articulated by US Army general Thomas S. Jesup, who, in
1836, wrote of the Seminoles: “The country can be rid of them
only by exterminating them.”
Spanning more than four hundred years, this classic bottom-up
peoples’ history radically reframes US history and explodes the
silences that have haunted our national narrative. REVIEWS:
“This may well be the most important US history book you will
read in your lifetime. . . . Dunbar-Ortiz radically reframes US
history, destroying all foundation myths to reveal a brutal
settler-colonial structure and ideology designed to cover its
bloody tracks. Here, rendered in honest, often poetic words, is
the story of those tracks and the people who survived—bloodied
but unbowed. Spoiler alert: the colonial era is still here, and
so are the Indians.” —Robin D. G. Kelley, author of Freedom
Dreams “Dunbar Ortiz’s . . . assessment and conclusions are
necessary tools for all Indigenous peoples seeking to address
and remedy the legacy of US colonial domination that continues
to subvert Indigenous human rights in today’s globalized
world.” —Mililani B. Trask, Native Hawai‘ian international law
expert on Indigenous peoples’ rights and former Kia Aina (prime
minister) of Ka La Hui Hawai‘i “An Indigenous Peoples’ History
of the United States provides an essential historical reference
for all Americans. . . . The American Indians’ perspective has
been absent from colonial histories for too long, leaving
continued misunderstandings of our struggles for sovereignty
and human rights.” —Peterson Zah, former president of the
Navajo Nation “An Indigenous Peoples’ History . . . pulls up
the paving stones and lays bare the deep history of the United
States, from the corn to the reservations. If the United States
is a ‘crime scene,’ as she calls it, then Dunbar-Ortiz is its
forensic scientist. A sobering look at a grave history.” —Vijay
Prashad, author of The Poorer Nations “Justice-seekers
everywhere will celebrate Dunbar-Ortiz’s unflinching commitment
to truth—a truth that places settler-colonialism and genocide
exactly where they belong: as foundational to the existence of
the United States.” —Waziyatawin, PhD, activist and author of
For Indigenous Minds Only “Dunbar-Ortiz strips us of our forged
innocence, shocks us into new awarenesses, and draws a straight
line from the sins of our fathers—settler-colonialism, the
doctrine of discovery, the myth of manifest destiny, white
supremacy, theft and systematic killing—to the contemporary
condition of permanent war, invasion and occupation, mass
incarceration, and the constant use and threat of state
violence.” —Bill Ayers “Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz’s Indigenous
Peoples’ History of the United States is a fiercely honest,
unwavering, and unprecedented statement, one which has never
been attempted by any other historian or intellectual. The
presentation of facts and arguments is clear and direct,
unadorned by needless and pointless rhetoric, and there is an
organic feel of intellectual solidity that provides weight and
trust. It is truly an Indigenous peoples’ voice that gives
Dunbar-Ortiz’s book direction, purpose, and trustworthy
intention. Without doubt, this crucially important book is
required reading for everyone in the Americas!” —Simon J.
Ortiz, Regents Professor of English and American Indian
Studies, Arizona State University “Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz writes
a masterful story that relates what the Indigenous peoples of
the United States have always maintained: Against the settler
U.S. nation, Indigenous peoples have persevered against actions
and policies intended to exterminate them, whether physically,
mentally, or intellectually. Indigenous nations and their
people continue to bear witness to their experiences under the
U.S. and demand justice as well as the realization of
sovereignty on their own terms.” —Jennifer Nez Denetdale,
Associate Professor of American Studies at the University of
New Mexico and author of Reclaiming Diné History
