"The story of three locations in the United States--in Mississippi, Minnesota, and Oklahoma--where the indigenous people were driven out by European colonists, where vicious racial killings took place in the last century, and how these places are coming to terms with the past, creating new organizations dedicated to racial repair and reconciliation as they aspire to a more inclusive, more promising future"--Publisher's website.
