Elle démontre la résistance dont ont fait preuve les Inuits face à des institutions venues de l’extérieur et les méthodes qu’ils ont développées afin d’intégrer leur langue et leurs cultures dans leurs écoles. Elle s’intéresse particulièrement à deux communautés dissidentes, celles d’Ivujivik et de Puvirnituq, qui ont entrepris de construire et d’administrer leur propre projet d’école pour et par les populations locales. L’étude permet de mieux comprendre le chemin parcouru par ceux et celles qui ont vécu ces changements et rend compte, par conséquent, de la situation au Nunavik vis-à-vis de l’institution scolaire.

Summary:
This book bridges generations of powerful Indigenous feminist thinking to demonstrate the movement’s cruciality for today. ''Indigenous feminists'' in the first edition fought for feminism to be considered a valid and essential intellectual and activist position. The second edition animated Indigenous feminisms through real-world applications. This third edition, curated by award-winning scholar Gina Starblanket, reflects and celebrates Indigenous feminism’s intergenerational longevity through the changing landscape of anti-colonial struggle and theory. Diverse contributors examine Indigenous feminism’s ongoing relevance to contemporary contexts and debates, including queer and Two-Spirit approaches to decolonization, gendered and sexualized violence, storytelling and narrative, land-based presence, Black and Indigenous relationalities and more. Feminism has much to offer Indigenous women, and all Indigenous Peoples, in their struggles against oppression.

Contributors place Indigenous practices of freedom within the particularities of Indigenous place-based laws, cosmologies, and diplomacies, while also demonstrating how Indigeneity is shaped across colonial borders. Collectively, they examine the relationships among language, Indigenous ontologies, and land reclamation; Indigenous ecology and restoration; the interconnectivity of environmental exploitation and racial, class, and gender exploitation; Indigenous diasporic movement; community urban planning; transnational organizing and relational anti-racist place-making; and the role of storytelling and children in movements for liberation.

Summary:
Au début des années 1980, alors qu'il était jeune photographe, Serge Jauvin a passé un long séjour chez les Innus d'Unamen Shipu (La Romaine) dans la famille d'Hélène et de William-Mathieu Mark. Il a reçu d'eux le témoignage exceptionnel de leur passage du nomadisme à la sédentarité et l'a documenté à travers son journal et ses photographies. Cela lui a permis d'illustrer à la fois la vie dans la communauté et celle sur le Nutshimit, le territoire ancestral. Ce récit sur les derniers nomades de la Côte-Nord n'est pas le regard extérieur d'un étranger. Au contraire, il constitue un témoignage intime du savoir-être et du savoir-faire innu. Il est une empreinte indélébile qui témoignera aux générations futures de la contribution d'un peuple millénaire de l'Amérique septentrionale «qui vivait ainsi».

Summary:
''Framing borders'' addresses a fundamental disjuncture between scholastic portrayals of settler colonialism and what actually takes place in Akwesasne Territory, the largest Indigenous cross-border community in Canada. Whereas most existing portrayals of Indigenous nationalism emphasize border crossing as a site of conflict between officers and Indigenous nationalists, in this book Ian Kalman observes a much more diverse range of interactions, from conflict to banality to joking and camaraderie. ''Framing Borders'' explores how border crossing represents a conversation where different actors "frame" themselves, the law, and the space that they occupy in diverse ways. Written in accessible, lively prose, Kalman addresses what goes on when border officers and Akwesasne residents meet, and what these exchanges tell us about the relationship between Indigenous actors and public servants in Canada. This book provides an ethnographic examination of the experiences of the border by Mohawk community members, the history of local border enforcement, and the paradoxes, self-contradictions, and confusions that underlie the border and its enforcement.

Summary:
For many years, Leanne Betasamosake Simpson has found refuge in skiing—in all kinds of weather across different forms of terrain, often following the trail beside a beloved creek near her home. Recently, as she skimmed along this path and meditated on our world's uncertainty—including environmental devastation, the rise of authoritarianism, and the effects of ongoing social injustice—her mind turned to the ice beside her, and the snow beneath her feet. And she asked herself: What might it mean to truly listen to water? To know not only the land on which we live, but the water that surrounds and inhabits us? To coexist with and alongside water? So begins this renowned writer's quest to discover, understand, and trace the historical and cultural interactions of Indigenous peoples with water in all its forms. On her journey, she reflects on the teachings, traditions, stories, and creative work of others in her community—particularly those of her longtime friend Doug Williams, an Elder whose presence suffuses these pages; reads deeply the words of thinkers from other communities whose writing expands her own; and begins to shape a "Theory of Water" that reimagines relationships among all beings and life-forces.

Summary:
As early as the end of the 19th century, anarchists such as Peter Kropotkin and Élisée Reclus became interested in indigenous peoples, many of whom they saw as societies without a state or private property, living a form of communism. Thinkers such as David Graeber and John Holloway have continued this tradition of engagement with the practices of indigenous societies and their politics. There has also been a long history of (often imperfect) collaboration between anarchists and indigenous activists, over land rights and environmental issues, including recent high-profile anti-pipeline campaigns. ''Anarcho-Indigenism'' is a dialogue between anarchism and indigenous politics, featuring interviews from indigenous contributors Véronique Hébert, Gord Hill, Freda Huson, J. Kehaulani Kauanui, Clifton Ariwakehte Nicholas and Toghestiy, as well as the Marxist scholar specialist in indigenous people’s history and politics, Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz. The contributors reveal what indigenous thought and traditions and anarchism have in common, without denying the scars left by colonialism even within this anti-authoritarian movement. They ultimately offer a vision of the world that combines anti-colonialism, feminism, ecology, anti-capitalism and anti-statism.
