  The America We Knew - The...

  Long before the United States was conceived, the land that would become America was home to diverse Native nations with distinct cultures, languages, and ways of life. These Indigenous peoples had established intricate societies with deep spiritual ties to the land. Their histories and traditions stretched back centuries, shaped by the environment and a rich tapestry of social and economic systems. When European settlers began arriving in the early 1600s, they encountered not an empty wilderness, but thriving civilizations. However, the arrival of these settlers would soon mark a period of upheaval and change that would drastically alter the continent’s destiny. 
  The first European settlements were often fragile, dependent on Indigenous knowledge and assistance for survival. The English at Jamestown, the Pilgrims in Plymouth, and other colonial groups faced starvation, disease, and harsh climates. Over time, however, these colonies grew stronger and more permanent. As settlers established farms, towns, and trade routes, they also began to encroach upon Native lands, leading to rising tensions and inevitable conflict. Colonial powers such as Britain, France, and Spain vied for control over these territories, using both diplomacy and violence to expand their influence. The early colonial period was thus characterized by both cooperation and confrontation, shaping a complex legacy of interaction between Natives and newcomers. 
  As settlements expanded, so too did European influence over the land. Colonists brought with them not only goods and technology but also new political, religious, and economic systems. These imported ideas began to take root, forming the foundations of what would later become American governance and identity. At the same time, the enslaved labor of Africans was introduced into the colonies, creating a brutal institution that would come to define much of the nation's future struggles.

  Belonging - A History of Indian...

  What does it mean to belong? 
  Across oceans and centuries, this sweeping narrative shuttles between the corridors of the Colonial Office in London, the contested streets of Durban, and the changing power dynamics within the British Raj.  
  The first boatload of indentured Indians arrived in Natal in 1860. Thousands were to follow. In haunting detail, the book captures the plight of these labourers as well as the vicious onslaught faced by the merchant class for daring to outpace their colonial rivals. At its core are the untold struggles of Indian South Africans as they confront the ever-present threat of repatriation.  
  Sensitive to shifting political terrains, the book weaves together seismic events – the independence of India, the coming of apartheid and the threat once more of mass expulsions – with the texture of everyday life. The granting of citizenship in 1961 is accompanied by mass relocations as the Group Areas Act rips communities from their roots. Yet, out of this despair, barren townships on the edges of cities are turned into places of hope.  
  In the final chapters, the fall of apartheid offers a moment of transcendence. Yet it also asks: what does it mean, at last, to belong? It is a fascinating story of the global and the local, of resistance and collaboration, and undefeated optimism. This is a book for anyone who has ever sought a place to call home.
