The Other Slavery: The Uncovered Story of Indian Enslavement in America is a book about Native American slavery written by Andrés Reséndez and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt in 2016. About The Other Slavery explores the history of Native American enslavement in the Americas. The book argues that Native American enslavement has been historically overlooked and marginalized. Resendez shows that slavery existed in the Americas before Europeans arrived; Indigenous peoples and later European colonizers enslaved indigenous peoples. This practice continued for centuries. The author documents the horrific treatment of Native American slaves, including brutal labor, sexual exploitation, and physical violence and compares treatment of Native American slaves to the experiences of enslaved Africans. Recognition The Other Slavery was a finalist for the National Book Awards in 2016 for Nonfiction. Reséndez won the 2017 Bancroft Prize in American History and Diplomacy for The Other Slavery.
