Rethinking Columbus: The Next 500 Years

This is a revised and expanded edition of a popular 1991 booklet that changed the way “the discovery of America” is taught in classroom and community settings. The new edition has over 100 pp. of new material, including a role-play trial of Columbus, materials on Thanksgiving Day, resources, historical documents, poetry, and more. It will help readers replace murky legends with a better sense of who we are and why we are here — and celebrates over 500 years of the courageous struggles and lasting wisdom of native peoples.
