An excellent look at modern Native American contributors to our world. This culture is seldom highlighted for it's modern influences and there are many. It was a fascinating read to see these brilliant peoples work and how it's changing and building our world better. I couldn't recommend this enough. History is often written only on the past this is a history in the making read. The People come from many tribes and this book highlights many who have not only overcome but stand out among many nations. OK, so the first persons I looked for were Maria Tallchief ballerina extraordinaire and Buffy Sainte Marie. But there are so many from history and the present, potters, other artists of all sorts, museum directors, and some very historical movers and shakers. This book is a great learning tool for ALL Americans, including the new ones (but the ESL is a bit challenging). Buy one for yourself, but buy one for your local library, too! Excellent! I requested and received a free ebook copy from Clarkson Potter/Ten Speed Press, Ten Speed Press via NetGalley. Thank you! nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
