Product Overview
By projecting demonic characteristics upon Native Americans and their culture, Puritan religious leaders created a theology of conquest in colonial New England. It led to the King Philip War - proportionately one of the bloodiest in American history. Hidden Genocide, Hidden People places the logic that informed this genocidal war in its place of origin - the pulpit. In candid and compelling terms, it describes the horrific outcome of such religious thinking - the virtual extermination of Native Americans in southern New England. Chilling and necessary. ....Noam Chomsky
