A Steady Brightness of Being (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

Bringing together voices from across Turtle Island, a groundbreaking collection of letters from Indigenous writers, activists, and thinkers--to their ancestors, to future generations, and to themselves.

Drawing on the wisdom and personal experience of its esteemed contributors, this first-of-its-kind anthology tackles complex questions of our times to provide a rich tapestry of Indigenous life, past, present, and future. These peace offerings--to settlers, to one another, to readers--explore the histories that have brought us to this moment, the challenges and crises faced by present-day communities, and the visions that will lead us to a new architecture for thinking about Indigeneity.

Including contributions from film actress and television writer Tamara Podemski, Governor General's Award-winning author David A. Robertson, and arts journalist Jesse Wente, and taking its structure from the medicine bundle--tobacco, sage, cedar, and sweetgrass--this beautiful collection will stir and empower readers, as well as enrich an essential and ongoing conversation about what reconciliation looks like and what it means to be Indigenous today.
