Synopsis

Indigenous nations have always been political bodies. In this book, readers will learn how the longhouse form of government worked, the peoples that used it, and the influence it had on U.S history and politics. Through these influences, readers are invited to celebrate Indigenous achievements and excellence in governing. The Racial Justice in America: Indigenous Peoples series explores the issues specific to the Indigenous communities in the United States in a comprehensive, honest, and age-appropriate way. This series was written by Indigenous historian and public scholar Heather Bruegl, a citizen of the Oneida Nation of Wisconsin and a first-line descendent Stockbridge Munsee. The series was developed to reach children of all races and encourage them to approach race, diversity, and inclusion with open eyes and minds.
