Acts of Rebellion brings together his most important writings on indigenism from the past two decades, covering basic American Indian concerns from land issues to the American Indian Movement, from government repression to their history of genocide. Churchill also skillfully dissects problematic depictions of Indians in American culture, including Columbus Day, Dances with Wolves, and the Washington Redskins. A must-read for all those interested in the truth about American history, Acts of Rebellion also covers the legal inconsistencies the government has developed to deal with American Indians, radical Indian ideologies, past and present struggles for land and rights, and political and cultural resistance and repression."
