Description
Chelsea Vowel's Indigenous Writes explores the complex relationship between Indigenous Peoples and Canada through 31 essays. The book delves into five categories: Terminology of Relationships, Culture and Identity, Myth-Busting, State Violence, and Land, Learning, Law, and Treaties. Vowel examines key concepts such as Delgamuukw, Sixties Scoop, Bill C-31, Blood quantum, Appropriation, Two-Spirit, Tsilhqot'in, Status, TRC, RCAP, FNPOA, Pass and permit, Numbered Treaties, Terra nullius, and The Great Peace. By answering questions on these topics, Vowel aims to spark further conversations at home, in the classroom, and in the community. This book is part of The Debwe Series and offers a valuable contribution to discussions about Indigenous issues in Canada.
