Kathleen DuVal, Carl W. Ernst Distinguished Professor of history at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill will present a short glimpse in her Pulitzer Prize winning book, NATIVE NATIONS, an informative book that will challenge and change your historical concepts about Native Americans.
“Native Nations provides a new way of understanding the long sweep of Native American history. Based on prodigious research reflecting the latest scholarship, and incorporating diverse perspective, Kathleen DuVal’s engagingly written new book reveals how Indigenous peoples’ varied strategies of presence, resistance and endurance fundamentally shaped the governmental and social structure of the United States as we know it today.” Daniel K Richter, Pulitzer Prize finalist and author of Facing East from Indian Country.
