Acts Of Rebellion : Ward Churchill Reader - 03 edition

"This valuable collection of forceful writings by an influential Native American leader is highly recommended for all academic libraries."

--Library Journal, March 15, 2003

"Ward Churchill has carved out a special place for himself in defending the rights of oppressed people, and exposing the dark side of past and current history, often forgotten, marginalized, or suppressed. These are achievements of inestimable value.."

--Noam Chomsky

"Ward Churchill is one of our most powerful chroniclers of Indian history-both of the sorry record of the United States government and the extraordinary resistance of the Indian people to policies of removal and annihilation. Each one of his books is an education in itself.."

--Howard Zinn
