Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - After a hunting trip one fall, a family in the far reaches of so-called Canada's north return to nothing but an empty space where their home once stood. Finding themselves suddenly homeless, they have no choice but to assimilate into settler-colonial society in a mining town that has encroached on their freedom. An intergenerational coming-of-age novel, This House Is Not a Home follows Ko`, a Dene man who grew up entirely on the land before being taken to residential school. When he finally returns home, he struggles to connect with his family: his younger brother whom he has never met, his mother because he has lost his language, and an absent father whose disappearance he is too afraid to question. The third book from acclaimed Dene, Cree and Metis writer Katlià, This House Is Not a Home is a fictional story based on true events. Visceral and embodied, heartbreaking and spirited, this book presents a clear trajectory of how settlers dispossessed Indigenous Peoples of their land -- and how Indigenous communities, with dignity and resilience, continue to live and honour their culture, values, inherent knowledge systems, and Indigenous rights towards re-establishing sovereignty. Fierce and unflinching, this story is a call for land back.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - \*\*\*Instant Globe and Mail Bestseller\*\*\*Indigenous solutions we can all apply today to make our lives more sustainable and engage with earth and community from award-winning Dene activist and writer Katlia.The Dene in Canada's North West territories have lived alongside nature for many generations. From battling environmental racism on the front lines of historical environmental protests, to innovating sustainable resources, to living a balanced life through effective individual and collective governance, the Dene have long protected Mother Earth from destruction through their intricate knowledge systems, natural laws, and age-old principles, which are shared here for the first time thank to the contributions of tribal elders.This is ancient information, but it's new to those outside the Dene community, and Katlia's voice channels our collective energy toward surprisingly simple scalable solutions such as:- sustainable, ethical food sources as a path toward food sovereignty- intermittent renewables and innovative alternatives to heat and power homes- housing systems incorporating green technologies into cultural ways of knowing that include living off grid- cultural burning to mitigate out of control wildfiresAdhering proudly to these responsibilities and values, Katlia (pronounced cat-lee-ah) writes a Dene manifesto fit to address the state of emergency we're in. Informed by Katlia's decades-long award-winning work and advocacy as a writer and activist, and her life experiences as a Dene woman from the north, this book achieves global relevance by focusing on the local.With evidence of how this all works for the Dene people, we see how it might work for us as well. This generous, pragmatic, and hopeful book shows us how to find coexistence with Mother Earth and embrace the wisdom of our local Indigenous communities.Mother Earth Is Our Elder features 10 original black-and-white photographs.…
