This newly revised and expanded edition traces the history of Native American resistance and struggle for decolonization. By focusing upon certain modes of resource exploitation—uranium mining, coal stripping, hydropower generation, and water diversion—Churchill demonstrates clearly that the effects of State/corporate business in the most native-populated hinterlands of the continent are as ecocidal as they are genocidal. The ecological havoc being wreaked cannot be contained within reservation areas, and therefore poses a threat to all North Americans, presenting a common ground upon which Indians and non-Indians alike can and must struggle to repeal the status quo.
