Did Native Americans suffer genocide? This controversial question
lies at the heart of Native America and the Question of Genocide.
After reviewing the various meanings of the word "genocide," author
Alex Alvarez examines a range of well-known examples, such as the
Sand Creek Massacre and the Long Walk of the Navajo, to determine
where genocide occurred and where it did not. The book explores the
destructive beliefs of the European settlers and then looks at
topics including disease, war, and education through the lens of
genocide. Native America and the Question of Genocide shows the
diversity of Native American experiences postcontact and
illustrates how tribes relied on ever-evolving and changing
strategies of confrontation and accommodation, depending on their
location, the time period, and individuals involved, and how these
often resulted in very different experiences. Alvarez treats this
difficult subject with sensitivity and uncovers the complex
realities of this troubling period in American history.
