About Education for Extinction

Only by removing Indian children from their homes for extended periods of time, policymakers reasoned, could white ""civilization"" take root while childhood memories of "savagism" gradually faded to the point of extinction. This fully revised edition of Education for Extinction offers the only comprehensive account of this dispiriting effort.
