I was doing a little research on children's literature on how Native Americans were treated, and came across this book called My Heart is on the Ground and thought, oh great, a book about residential schools, that'll be a good way to introduce the subject with children. Oh boy was I wrong! In case anyone is wondering if a children's series called "Dear America" might be as imperialist as shit, yeah, it sure as hell is. This book is utter trash. It was written by an author that I liked when I was a kid, but I haven't gone back to reread any of my favorites from then--there's probably a lot of shit that I didn't notice then.
