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(...)

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:
There have been many things written about Canada’s violent siege of Kanehsatà:ke and Kahnawà:ke in the summer of 1990, but "When the pine needles fall: Indigenous acts of resistance" is the first book from the perspective of Katsi’tsakwas Ellen Gabriel, who was the Kanien’kehá:ka (Mohawk) spokesperson during the siege. "When the pine needles fall," written in a conversational style by Gabriel with historian Sean Carleton, offers an intimate look at Gabriel’s life leading up to the 1990 siege, her experiences as spokesperson for her community, and her work since then as an Indigenous land defender, human rights activist, and feminist leader. More than just the memoir of an extraordinary individual, "When the pine needles fall" offers insight into Indigenous language, history, and philosophy, reflections on our relationship with the land, and calls to action against both colonialism and capitalism as we face the climate crisis. Gabriel’s hopes for a decolonial future make clear why protecting Indigenous homelands is vital not only for the survival of Indigenous peoples, but for all who live on this planet.

Summary:
A genre-bending exploration of that most elemental force—water—through Indigenous storytelling, personal memory, and the work of influential artists and writers For many years, Leanne Betasamosake Simpson took solace in skiing—in all kinds of weather, on all kinds of snow across all kinds of terrain, often following the trail beside a beloved creek near her home. Recently, as she skied on this path against the backdrop of uncertainty, environmental devastation, rising authoritarianism and ongoing social injustice, her mind turned to the water in the creek and an elemental What might it mean to truly listen to water? To know water? To exist with and alongside water? So began a quest to understand her people's historical, cultural, and ongoing interactions with water in all its forms (ice, snow, rain, perspiration, breath). Pulling together these threads, Leanne began to see how a "Theory of Water" might suggest a radical rethinking of relationships between beings and forces in the world today. In this inventive work, Simpson draws on Nishnaabeg origin stories while artfully weaving the work of influential writers and artists alongside her personal memories and experience—and in doing so, reimagines water as a catalyst for radical transformation, capable of birthing a new world.

Summary:
In this book, award-winning writer Leanne Betasamosake Simpson uses Michi Saagiig Nishnaabeg stories, storytelling aesthetics, and practices to explore the generative nature of Indigenous blockades through our relative, the beaver—or in Nishnaabemowin, Amik. Moving through genres, shifting through time, amikwag stories become a lens for the life-giving possibilities of dams and the world-building possibilities of blockades, deepening our understanding of Indigenous resistance as both a negation and an affirmation. Widely recognized as one of the most compelling Indigenous voices of her generation, Simpson’s work breaks open the intersections between politics, story, and song, bringing audiences into a rich and layered world of sound, light, and sovereign creativity. This publication reveals how the practice of telling stories is also a culture of listening, “a thinking through together,” and ultimately, like the dam or the blockade, an affirmation of life.

Choquant, dérangeant, exprimant des vérités sur lesquelles on préférerait parfois fermer les yeux, ce livre est un document essentiel pour comprendre le point de vue des Inuit dans le bras de fer qui les a opposés à Québec. C’est une occasion unique d’entendre une voix qui a eu bien peu d’échos au Sud et, pour les Québécois, de faire un examen de conscience salutaire quant à la façon dont ils ont, par le passé, transigé avec les Premières Nations.
