Left Out of History (Read Woke Books)-The Real Indigenous Peoples' Day

Indigenous Peoples' Day is a holiday that celebrates the cultures and histories of Indigenous peoples across the US. It honors Indigenous peoples' contributions and resilience while reclaiming the narrative from colonizers such as Christopher Columbus who are credited with "discovering" the New World. Learn about the stories of Indigenous peoples, including important events and figures who helped retain Indigenous sovereignty, as well as the origin of Indigenous Peoples' Day. Have you ever considered what's missing from history books? In Left Out of History, explore the misunderstood and underexamined past in this engaging series. Compelling photographs and primary sources help bring previously buried history to light. Read Woke(TM) Books are created in partnership with Cicely Lewis, the Read Woke librarian. Inspired by a belief that knowledge is power, Read Woke Books seek to amplify the voices of people of the global majority (people who are of African, Arab, Asian, and Latin American descent and identify as not white), provide information about groups that have been disenfranchised, share perspectives of people who have been underrepresented or oppressed, challenge social norms and disrupt the status quo, and encourage readers to take action in their community.
