The 500 Years of Indigenous Resistance Comic Book: Revised and Expanded - by Gord Hill (Paperback)

The 500 Years of Resistance Comic Book is an expanded and revised edition of Gord Hill's seminal work, offering a powerful and evocative portrayal of Indigenous activism and resistance in the Americas over the past 500 years.

With strong, plain language and vivid illustrations, this book reveals the tenacity and perseverance of Indigenous peoples as they endured genocide, massacre, torture, rape, displacement, and assimilation.

The book includes a foreword by Pamela Palmater, a Mi'kmaq lawyer and professor, and features events such as the Spanish conquest of the Aztec, Mayan, and Inca empires; the 1680 Pueblo Revolt in New Mexico; the Battle of Wounded Knee in 1890; and the resistance of the Great Plains peoples in the 19th century.

This expanded edition also covers more recent events such as the Idle No More protests and the resistance to the Dakota Access Pipeline.

A necessary antidote to conventional histories of the Americas, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in Indigenous rights and activism.
