Mankiller: A Chief and Her People by Michael Wallis, Wilma Mankiller

4.0

I read this book for a Women & Gender Studies class and it opened my eyes to the full Native American experience in California, not just the footnotes we're given in history classes. We tend to think of the trail of tears as the end of Native relocation, but it continues in many insidious ways. As for the author herself, she does an excellent job of sharing personal details and connecting her family to the overall Native experience. Highly recommend.
