Product Description

Twelve Native American kids present historical and contemporary laws, policies, struggles, and victories in Native life, each with a powerful refrain: We are still here!

An ideal nonfiction picture book for 7-10-year-old future activists and changemakers! An inspiring read by best-selling and award-winning Cherokee author Traci Sorell.

Too often, Native American history is treated as a finished chapter instead of relevant and ongoing. This companion book to the award-winning We Are Grateful: Otsaliheliga offers readers everything they never learned in school about Native American people's past, present, and future.

Precise, lyrical writing presents topics including:

  • Assimilation
  • Allotment
  • Termination
  • Relocation
  • Economic Development
  • Language Revival
  • Sovereign Resurgence
  • and more

Best-selling Cherokee author Traci Sorell has a Native rights advocacy background, and is active in both her tribal community as well as the broader Native American community. We Are Still Here! Native American Truths Everyone Should Know is sure to educate and inspire both Native and non-Native readers.
