Nationhood Interrupted: Revitalizing Nêhiyaw Legal Systems
This groundbreaking book shares nêhiyaw (Cree) laws, marking a significant departure from the traditional oral tradition. Sylvia McAdam, co-founder of the international movement Idle No More, presents these physical laws to promote understanding and revitalization of Indigenous nationhood.
By exploring the spiritual and cultural foundations of nêhiyaw law, readers can gain insight into the thoughts and worldview of Indigenous people and contribute to a harmonious society for all. This book offers an important step towards healing historical wounds and creating a brighter future for Indigenous communities.
