Tells the fascinating story of how generations of Hopi schoolchildren from northeastern Arizona “turned the power†by using compulsory federal education to affirm their way of life and better their community. Matthew Sakiestewa Gilbert draws on interviews, archival records, and his own experiences growing up in the Hopi community to offer a powerful account of a quiet, enduring triumph.
