BEFORE AMERICA reframes Revolutionary-era history through Native perspectives, chronicling the often-overlooked Indigenous history of the Great Lakes before the United States existed. From the 1763 uprising at Fort Michilimackinac to Odawa trail trees and the homelands of L'Arbre Croche, BEFORE AMERICA reveals how the Anishinaabe nations shaped events that pushed Britain and the colonies toward revolution. Exploring Indigenous resistance and rebellion, memory and sovereignty, and uncovering hidden tales of women's power, BEFORE AMERICA tells the story that the land still remembers - this is where the fight for freedom truly began.
