Powerful Voices: A Note from Our Youth
A recommendation from CSSP's Young Tribal Leaders! The Heartbeat of Wounded Knee by David Treuer challenges the narrative that Native American history ended at Wounded Knee in 1890. Instead, this book illustrates the resilience and continuous efforts being made by our people to preserve our way of life.
