About this audiobook

"American History of Violence" is a comprehensive examination of how violence has been central to shaping the United States, both domestically and internationally. The book covers key historical moments, from colonialism and slavery to civil rights struggles, mass shootings, and U.S. foreign interventions. It explores how violence has been used as a tool for expansion, control, and resistance, impacting everything from the displacement of Indigenous peoples to modern-day conflicts like the War on Terror. Ultimately, the book provides a critical analysis of the recurring patterns of violence that define America’s past and present, and raises essential questions about the future.

It is a deep exploration of the intersection of power, race, and policy, offering readers insights into both the dark and enduring aspects of the nation's history.
