Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. A necessary reckoning with America?s troubled history of injustice to Indigenous peopleAfter One Hundred Winters confronts the harsh truth that the United States was founded on the violent dispossession of Indigenous people and asks what reconciliation might mean in light of this haunted history. In this timely and urgent book, settler historian Margaret Jacobs tells the stories of the individuals and communities who are working together to heal historical wounds?and reveals how much we have to gain by learning from our history instead of denying it.Jacobs traces the brutal legacy of systemic racial injustice to Indigenous people that has endured since the nation?s founding. Explaining how early attempts at reconciliation succeeded only in robbing tribal nations of their land and forcing their children into abusive boarding schools, she shows that true reconciliation must emerge through Indigenous leadership and sustained relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people that are rooted in specific places and histories. In the absence of an official apology and a federal Truth and Reconciliation Commission, ordinary people are creating a movement for transformative reconciliation that puts Indigenous land rights, sovereignty, and values at the forefront. With historical sensitivity and an eye to the future, Jacobs urges us to face our past and learn from it, and once we have done so, to redress past abuses.Drawing on dozens of interviews, After One Hundred Winters reveals how Indigenous people and settlers in America today, despite their troubled history, are finding unexpected gifts in reconciliation.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. In April 1909, twenty-two-year-old Robert Silliman Judd, born and raised in Bethel, Connecticut, climbed aboard a train bound for the far northern plains where his uncle Elmer farmed in Cando, North Dakota. Robert was on his way to roam the prairie with Elmer, observing and collecting birds during the great spring migration. When librarian and poet Margaret Rogal pored over tiny notebooks-filled with detailed records of birds, nests, and eggs-that her grandfather Robert kept during his six-month stay in Cando, and when she read the letters he wrote home to his mother, father, and grandfather, she wanted to talk back, she had to, with poems, each one an exploration of a particular aspect of Robert's experience: his two families, the one in Connecticut he sorely missed, and the uncle, aunt, and young cousins he was growing attached to in North Dakota; long days behind a binder and a team of horses; and, most of all, the birds migrating by the thousands through North Dakota, alighting, it seemed, at his very feet. Wherever Robert went, always with a pencil and notebook in his pocket to record and note, he recreated with words a world that must have seemed strange as well as beautiful-he had lived only in Connecticut up to this point in his life. Those notebooks, journals, and letters are a gift for Margaret, in which her grandfather wrote about his six months of slowly and surely falling in love with northern North Dakota: not just with the family who lived there and the grueling but rewarding demands of life on a farm, but with the prairie itself-its undulating terrain, punctuated by the surprising appearance of potholes, sloughs, and coulees, its wind and mosquitoes, its yellow violets and effulgent sunsets, the sky wider and deeper than he ever imagined; and, most importantly, the dozens of bird species he observed, recorded, and collected.

"MOMENTUM sees writing in South Africa after Soweto '76 as being of two kinds: the artefact (novels, plays or poetry) and the manifesto (the artist's statement about the shaping of events in this country on his or her work). Another kind of division is also operative in South African literature: the writings of those who live here and the writings of those who live abroad - our exiles. Because there are at least these two kinds of divisions in our literature, MOMENTUM takes the shape it does. It combines writers' statements (from home and abroad) about their work with critical discussion of that work.".…
