In this timely and urgent book, settler historian Margaret Jacobs tells the stories of the individuals and communities who are working together to heal historical wounds-and reveals how much we have to gain by learning from our history instead of denying it. Jacobs traces the brutal legacy of systemic racial injustice to Indigenous people that has endured since the nation's founding. Explaining how early attempts at reconciliation succeeded only in robbing tribal nations of their land and forcing their children into abusive boarding schools, she shows that true reconciliation must emerge through Indigenous leadership and sustained relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people that are rooted in specific places and histories. In the absence of an official apology and a federal Truth and Reconciliation Commission, ordinary people are creating a movement for transformative reconciliation that puts Indigenous land rights, sovereignty, and values at the forefront. With historical sensitivity and an eye to the future, Jacobs urges us to face our past and learn from it, and once we have done so, to redress past abuses. Drawing on dozens of interviews, After One Hundred Winters reveals how Indigenous people and settlers in America today, despite their troubled history, are finding unexpected gifts in reconciliation"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Indians of North America $z United States $x Government relations. 650 0 $a Indians of North America $z United States $x Politics and government. 650 0 $a Indians of North America $x Civil rights $z United States. 650 0 $a Reparations for historical injustices $z United States. 650 0 $a Transitional justice $z United States. 941 $a 3 952 $l BOPG851 $d 20231010030348.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20230517011224.0 952 $l BAPH771 $d 20211022010103.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=550A257632FD11ECA73A95B520ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IOUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
