Most Americans have grown up knowing next to nothing about the 500+ tribal nations that were already here when Columbus arrived. We have little idea about their ways of life, their histories, and their current status. We rarely even think about them. And when we do, the picture we see is often distorted by murky images of casinos, feather headdresses, and tomahawks. In this adaptation of his award-winning book for adults, Dr. Treuer gives us a fascinating glimpse into tribal America today. He covers everything from the more common (How come no one lives in tipis anymore?) to the more personal (Why is there no Native Appropriation Appreciation Day?) to the more political (Why is it called a \"massacre\" when Indians are killed and a \"battle\" when Europeans are killed?). Dr. Treuer's answers are always candid, often revelatory, and consistently grounded in deep research and lived experience. This is a must-read for anyone who wants to understand the people who were here first.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFrom the acclaimed Ojibwe author and professor Anton Treuer comes an essential book of questions and answers for Native and non-Native young readers alike.

If he couldn’t act he would dance, if he couldn’t dance he would sing, and if he couldn’t sing … well, maybe he had stories to tell.
