For Indigenous Peoples' Day, we've put together a list of recommended books by Indigenous authors. We also want to take the time to acknowledge our store is located on unceded Matinecock land. Reading books by Indigenous authors has been a meaningful step for our booksellers towards understanding the ongoing legacies of settler colonialism in America and the ways in which we have benefited from the exclusions and erasures of Indigenous people and histories. We're happy to share this list and hope you find great new books to read: bit.ly/3djQcMy
