"A fascinating collection of essays by a wide variety of California Indian authors addressing an equally varied spectrum of issues but all focused on one critical theme: resistance to colonialism, past and present." –Benjamin Madley, author of An American Genocide: The United States and the California Indian Catastrophe, 1846-1873
"An essential resource to learn about the many trials and triumphs of the Indigenous people of California who rise to revitalize their cultures, tell their true histories, and honor their ancestors through retelling stories that keep them remembered in these landscapes. Their love of the land, their cultures, and the pride in their history shine through." –M. Kat Anderson, author of Tending the Wild: Native American Knowledge and the Management of California's Natural Resources
