My book has only been out for a week and we’ve already sold out our first two printings AND made it onto a bestsellers List covered by @latimes !
Thank you for showing up for We’ve Been Here The Whole Time! A Not So Sacred Guide to All Things Native America! You're the best!
This is a quick and highly enjoyable read! Even I, whose attention span has been utterly destroyed by social media, managed to read this in a weekend. Highly recommend even if you think you don’t care about Native issues (tho you should!!)
