Review Quotes: "Adapting a work of history as dense and as vital as Dunbar-Ortiz's An Indigenous Peoples' History of the United States (2014) to comics form is no easy feat, but Peart-Smith is up for the task . . . A thoughtful, radically hopeful work that is sure to resonate with readers of all ages."
--Booklist

"[Peart-Smith] consolidates a LOT of information into one coherent narrative, and what I especially like is how celebratory it is in the end. This is not a happy story, but it is a defiant one, and it even ends with a clearly stated process for what's next . . . This is a book that is very worth reading for anyone who wants to challenge what they think about American history."
--Comic Book Resources

"This isn't simply a story of oppression. It's equally a history of resistance . . . [it] should be on every library's shelves. Now more than ever."
--Broken Frontier
