Unworthy Republic: The Dispossession of Native Americans and the Road to Indian Territory by Claudio Saunt

5.0

This is a fantastic read - well written and poignant. In moving to Tulsa, Oklahoma, I've been trying to read more about the dispossession of Indigenous land and their forced removal to Oklahoma. It was particularly painful that pretty much all of the maps in this book, plotting where the indigenous people were forced to march, end exactly where I now live. However, this is what in looking to learn about & understand. I do wish this book had been told more from the point of view of indigenous people, but it was a great place to start in my understanding.
