2015 Recipient of the American Book Award

The first history of the United States told from the perspective of indigenous peoples

Today in the United States, there are more than five hundred federally recognized Indigenous nations comprising nearly three million people, descendants of the fifteen million Native people who once inhabited this land. The centuries-long genocidal program of the US settler-colonial regimen has largely been omitted from history. Now, for the first time, acclaimed historian and activist Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz offers a history of the United States told from the perspective of Indigenous peoples and reveals how Native Americans, for centuries, actively resisted expansion of the US empire.

In An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States, Dunbar-Ortiz adroitly challenges the founding myth of the United States and shows how policy against the Indigenous peoples was colonialist and designed to seize the territories of the original inhabitants, displacing or eliminating them. And as Dunbar-Ortiz reveals, this policy was praised in popular culture, through writers like James Fenimore Cooper and Walt Whitman, and in the highest offices of government and the military. Shockingly, as the genocidal policy reached its zenith under President Andrew Jackson, its ruthlessness was best articulated by US Army general Thomas S. Jesup, who, in 1836, wrote of the Seminoles: "The country can be rid of them only by exterminating them."

Spanning more than four hundred years, this classic bottom-up peoples' history radically reframes US history and explodes the silences that have haunted our national narrative.

we love it!!!!
Color: 4-in-1 Wine Set - Silver
I purchased this for my fiancé and she is absolutely in love with it. She uses it every single time she opens a bottle of wine for the money. I was pleasantly surprised on how good the quality is of this product every single item in this bundle works great and we use all of them. We have been using this product for 5 months now and this is my honest review. The wine opener: this thing is actually very powerful and we are yet to replace the batteries for 5 months. We have yet to come across a bottle that it cannot open it does it all and in a timely manner. Makes opening a bottle of wine super simple. The wine Spicket: it works awesome! This is the first time we have used something like this and we are absolutely in love. It aerates the wine at the same time pouring a beautiful glass for you without any effort with just one push of the button to turn it on and again to turn it off. no need to hold the button down while you were using it just one push is all you need. The tinfoil remover: works exactly as it should you clamp it down on the top and spin it one time and it cuts it perfectly. The wine stopper: this is a very nice feature after a good couple of pumps. It draws all the air out of the bottle and helps preserve your wine for later use. Overall, we are extremely happy with this product. You cannot beat it for the price. I would highly recommend this to anybody that drinks wine you will not be disappointed.

Loved this wine bottle opener
Color: 4-in-1 Wine Set - Silver
I bought an electric wine opener and server for my boyfriend, who’s a big wine lover, and he absolutely loves it! The electric opener makes opening bottles effortless — no more struggling with corkscrews. It works with just a push of a button and opens a bottle in seconds. He especially appreciates how easy it is to use and how clean it is, with no cork pieces falling into the wine. The wine server feature is just as fantastic. It pours the wine smoothly and evenly, preventing spills and drips, which makes the whole experience feel much more luxurious. It’s also rechargeable, so he doesn’t have to worry about constantly replacing batteries. Overall, it’s the perfect gift for anyone who enjoys wine. It’s practical, efficient, and really elevates the wine-drinking experience. My boyfriend uses it all the time and is thrilled with how convenient and stylish it is!

Amazing and affordable
Color: 4-in-1 Wine Set - Silver
Amazing! We have loved the wine cork remover but have loved the red wine dispenser too! Bought two as gifts and we are very happy. Happy we upgraded but don’t go with the super high price one that had bad reviews.
