Gatherings, Volume VII - Standing Ground
Strength and Solidarity Amidst Dissolving Boundaries
Description
Indigenous writers. this is our territory. this is indigenous land where our values, our ways of speaking, our oral traditions, our languages, our philosophies, our concepts, our histories, our literary traditions, our aesthetics are expressed and accepted and honoured each according to our nations. this is where we carve stories into the memories of our people. we sing songs our children will remember. it is to them we speak. it is for them we sing. mee iwih. mee minik. - From the introduction by Kateri Akiwenzie-Damm
