About the Book:
"After One Hundred Winters" confronts the harsh truth that the United States was founded on the violent dispossession of Indigenous people and asks what reconciliation might mean in light of this haunted history. In this timely and urgent book, settler historian Margaret Jacobs tells the stories of the individuals and communities who are working together to heal historical wounds--and reveals how much we have to gain by learning from our history instead of denying it.
Drawing on dozens of interviews, "After One Hundred Winters" reveals how Indigenous people and settlers in America today, despite their troubled history, are finding unexpected gifts in reconciliation.
