Book Description:

A gripping historical study, The Murder of Joe White contextualizes decades of struggle as the Ojibwe community at Rice Lake resisted removal to the Lac Courte Oreilles Reservation. While many studies portray American colonialism as defined by federal policy, this book seeks a much broader understanding of colonialism, including the complex role of state and local governments as well as corporations.
