A truly wonderful book. Educated me about a variety of indigenous issues I had heard of but didn't truly understand. It shows the reality of the brutality and hardship indigenous people in north america face but intersperses it with moments of hope, joy, and little victories that mean the world. I would recommend this book to absolutely everyone.
