This 1992 essay was originally published in the revolutionary indigenous newspaper OH-TOH-KIN. It is a historical chronology of the colonization of the Americas - and the resistance to it. It finishes with the decade defining Mohawk resistance at Oka and reads as a prelude to the Zapatista uprising in Chiapas, Mexico in 1994. It is as relevant, and timely, as it was a decade before. Perhaps more so.

Seller's Description:
New. New. No dust jacket as issued. Brand New! Support Radical Independent Pacific Northwest Booksellers! Trade paperback (US). Glued binding. 96 p. Audience: General/trade. history of the colonization of the Americas by Europeans is often portrayed as a mutually beneficial process, in which ' civilization was brought to the Natives, who in return shared their land and cultures. A more critical history might present it as a genocide in which Indigenous peoples were helpless victims, overwhelmed and awed by European military power. In reality, neither of these views is correct. 500 Years of Indigenous Resistance is more than a history of European colonization of the Americas. In this slim volume, Gord Hill chronicles the resistance by Indigenous peoples, which limited and shaped the forms and extent of colonialism. This history encompasses North and South America, the development of nation-states, and the resurgence of Indigenous resistance in the post-WWII era.
