“A powerful series that fills in the cracks and illuminates the shadows of the past.” –Sherri L. Smith, award-winning author of Flygirl
 
Introducing a new nonfiction series that uncovers hidden histories of the United States.
The true story of the United States’ Indigenous beginnings.
American schoolchildren have long been taught that their country was “discovered” by Christopher Columbus in 1492. But the history of Native Americans in the United States goes back tens of tens of thousands of years prior to Columbus’s and other colonizers’ arrivals. So, what’s the true history? 
Indigenous America introduces and amplifies the oral and written histories that have long been left out of American history books.

      Indigenous Canadian narrator Darrell Dennis delivers this unvarnished account of Native American history for middle-grade students. The audiobook, part of the True History series, does not shy away from uncomfortable truths about the European colonization of the Americas. Dennis speaks without rancor or sensationalism, delivering facts about the American Indians' roles in aiding the colonists in matters of governance and farming, their reactions to being marginalized and often brutalized by the U.S. and colonial governments, and their continued ability to survive and thrive. He speaks in a quiet, measured tone, guiding the listener through periods of history loosely divided into sections titled "Knowledge," "Myths," "Erasure," and the more hopeful, "Resilience." Sidebar material flows easily into the main text. L.T. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine
