DESCRIPTION:"She meticulously and convincingly argues that U.S. gun culture-and the 
 domestic and global massacres  that have flowed from it- must be linked to 
 an understanding of the ideological, historical and practical role of guns 
 in seizing Native American lands, black enslavement, and global 
 imperialism."- Clarence Lusane\n\nThe U.S. loves guns. From Daniel Boone 
 and Jesse James to the NRA and Seal Team 6, gun culture has colored the 
 lore, shaped the law, and protected the market that arms the nation, and 
 the world. In Loaded, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz peels away the sacred myths of 
 Americans' "right to bear arms" to expose the true origins of the Second 
 Amendment, specifically, the connection between the arming of the earliest 
 Anglo settlers, modern-day policing, and the persistence of white supremacy 
 as a political force. From the nation's origins in slavery and colonization 
 to today's right wing "gun lobby," Loaded presents a U.S. history of 
 firearms that will be invaluable for anyone interested in understanding the 
 interconnected histories of racism and gun violence in the United 
 States.\n\nRoxanne Dunbar-Ortiz grew up in rural Oklahoma, the daughter of 
 a tenant farmer and part-Indian mother. She is the author of many books, 
 including Outlaw Woman, a memoir of her time in an armed underground group, 
 Red Dirt: Growing up Okie, and Blood On the Border: A Memoir of the Contra 
 War, and the recent, widely acclaimed An Indigenous People's History of the 
 United States. \n\nPresented by KPFA Radio 94.1FM\n      \nHost Joanna 
 Manqueros worked as a therapist at Kaiser Hospital, where she has been 
 co-chair of the Diversity Committee in Psychiatry for many years. In 
 addition, she has been a host of KPFA's Music of the World since 
 2005.\n\nadvance tickets: $12, 800-838-3006 or independent bookstores, $15
