An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz.
insightful book.

check out new podcast 'First America'.
proposes that american revolution was due to colonists' expansion desires.
british were uninterested in any new conflicts outside europe, and attempted indigenous treaty for all lands west of appalachians. problem : settlers already defied rules and wanted even more. (hello Israel !)
americans attacked arms and supplies sent by british for natives to defend themselves.
british taxes and other such noble complaints came as later justifications.

was i ever brainwashed!
