Summary:
"For decades, child welfare authorities have been forcibly removing Native American children from their homes to 'save' them from being Indian. In Maine, the first official 'truth and reconciliation commission' in the United States begins an unprecedented investigation. Dawnland goes behind-the-scenes as this historic body deals with difficult truths, questions the meaning of reconciliation, and charts a new course for state and tribal relations"--Container.
