Summary:
"The 500
Years
of
Indigenous
Resistance
Comic
Book
powerfully portrays flashpoints in history when
Indigenous
peoples have risen up and fought back against colonizers and other oppressors. Events depicted include the the Spanish conquest of the Aztec, Mayan and Inca empires; the 1680 Pueblo Revolt in New Mexico; the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890; the
resistance
of the Great Plains peoples in the 19th century; and more recently, the Idle No More protests supporting
Indigenous
sovereignty and rights in 2012 and 2013, and the
resistance
to the Dakota Access Pipeline in 2016. Canadian events depicted include the Oka crisis in 1990, the Grand River land dispute between Six Nations and the Government of Canada in 2006, and the Wet'suwet'en anti-pipeline protests in 2020. With strong, plain language and evocative illustrations, this revised and expanded edition of The 500
Years
of
Indigenous
Resistance
Comic
Book
reveals the tenacity and perseverance of
Indigenous
peoples as they endured 500-plus
years
of genocide, massacre, torture, rape, displacement, and assimilation: a necessary antidote to conventional histories of the Americas. The
book
includes a foreword by Pamela Palmater, a Mi'kmaq lawyer, professor, and political commentator." -- back cover.
