The essay at the end of this book was somewhat surprising to me in that it focused a lot on the intersection of removal of Native Americans and freed black Americans during the reconstruction period. I guess I knew that these things were going on at the same time and both were a direct result of white supremacy but I've never really read about the interactions of Native Americans and African Americans before, during, and shortly after the Civil War. I want to read more about that. I don't think I even knew that there were Indigenous nations who owned slaves.
