'Indian Nullification of the Unconstitutional Laws of Massachusetts Relative to the Marshpee Tribe' is a powerful timely book about the struggle of the Mashpee Wampanoag people against European settlers' oppression and their fight for self-government. Written by William Apess, an ordained Methodist minister and a political and religious leader of mixed-race descent, this book tells the story of the Mashpee Revolt of 1833-1834, in which Apess played a key role. Apess drew parallels between the desire of free people of color for their rights and the historic struggle of European-American colonists for independence. His book, among the first written by a Native American writer on Native American political rights, sheds light on an important chapter of American history that has long been overlooked.
