Understanding and Teaching Native American History is a timely and
urgently needed remedy to a long-standing gap in history
instruction. While the past three decades have seen burgeoning
scholarship in Indigenous studies, comparatively little of that has
trickled into classrooms. This volume is designed to help teachers
effectively integrate Indigenous history and culture into their
lessons, providing richly researched content and resources across
the chronological and geographical landscape of what is now known
as North America. Despite the availability of new scholarship, many
teachers struggle with contextualizing Indigenous history and
experience. Native peoples frequently find themselves relegated to
historical descriptions, merely a foil to the European settlers who
are the protagonists in the dominant North American narrative. This
book offers a way forward, an alternative framing of the story that
highlights the ongoing integral role of Native peoples via broad
coverage in a variety of topics including the historical,
political, and cultural. With its scope and clarity of vision,
suggestions for navigating sensitive topics, and a multitude of
innovative approaches authored by contributors from
multidisciplinary backgrounds, Understanding and Teaching Native
American History will also find use in methods and other graduate
courses. Nearly a decade in the conception and making, this is a
groundbreaking source for both beginning and veteran instructors.
