 800-838-3006 or independent bookstores, $15 door, benefits KPFA Radio 
 94.1FM. co-sponsored by St. John's Presbyterian Church\n        \nIn 2016, 
 a small protest encampment at the Standing Rock reservation in North 
 Dakota, initially established to block construction of the Dakota Access 
 oil pipeline, grew to be the largest Indigenous protest movement in the 
 twenty-first century, attracting tens of thousands of Indigenous and 
 non-Native allies from around the world. Its slogan - "Mni Wiconi" - Water 
 is Life - was about more than just a pipeline. Water protectors knew this 
 battle for Native sovereignty had already been fought many times before, 
 and that even after the encampment was gone their anti-colonial struggle 
 would continue. In Our History is the Future, Nick Estes traces traditions 
 of Indigenous resistance from the days of the Missouri River trading forts 
 through the Indian Wars, the Pick-Sloan Dams, the American Indian Movement 
 and the campaign for Indigenous Rights at the United Nations. Estes also 
 draws on personal observations from the encampments and from his own 
 growing up as a citizen of Oceti Sakowin (the Nation of the Seven Council 
 Fires), making this book a work of authentic history, a personal story, and 
 a stirring manifesto for native liberation.\n\n"This book is a 
 jewel-history and analysis that reads like the best poetry-certain to be a 
 classic work as well as a study guide for continued and accelerated 
 resistance."\n-Roxanne Dunbar Ortiz, author of An Indigenous People's 
 History of the United States\n\nNick Estes, a citizen of the Lower Brule 
 Sioux Tribe, is an Assistant Professor of American Studies at the 
 University of New Mexico, and a co-founder of The Red Nation, an 
 organization dedicated to native liberation.\n\n$12 advance, $15 door.\n
