A Century of Dishonor: An Essay on the Relations of the United States Government with Certain Indian Tribes is an important book written by Helen Hunt Jackson that was first published in 1881. The author carefully examines the history of the US government's interaction with Native American tribes, paying attention to the systematic violations of rights and promises made by the authorities over the centuries.
In her work, Helen Hunt Jackson uses factual material and personal testimony to reveal the profound injustice with which the relationship between American Indians and the government was intertwined. The book reveals the brutality and heartlessness of the system used to deprive indigenous people of their lands, culture and rights.
"A Century of Dishonor" is a powerful work that prompts readers to ask questions about justice, morality, and dignity. This book leaves an immeasurable mark in the history of the struggle for human rights and calls for visual reflection and action to create a more just society for all its members."
