Book Description
What would Indigenous resurgence look like if the parameters were not set with a focus on the state, settlers, or an achievement of reconciliation? Indigenous Resurgence in an Age of Reconciliation explores the central concerns and challenges facing Indigenous nations in their resurgence efforts, while also mapping the gaps and limitations of both reconciliation and resurgence frameworks. The essays in this collection centre the work of Indigenous communities, knowledge, and strategies for resurgence and, where appropriate, reconciliation. The book challenges narrow interpretations of indigeneity and resurgence, asking readers to take up a critical analysis of how settler colonial and heteronormative framings have infiltrated our own ways of relating to our selves, one another, and to place. The authors seek to (re)claim Indigenous relationships to the political and offer critical self-reflection to ensure Indigenous resurgence efforts do not reproduce the very conditions and contexts from which liberation is sought. Illuminating the interconnectivity between and across life in all its forms, this important collection calls on readers to think expansively and critically about Indigenous resurgence in an age of reconciliation.

Book Description
His interests include the Native American history of the Northwest. This, the second manuscript of the series of three, pertains to the lives of those who walked the lands and worshipped everything they were offered from the Great Spirit above. Though the natives believed in spirituality, their beliefs were not far from understanding there is a God that offered mankind everything they would need to survive on a day-to-day basis. It is in that testament of their survival and toward their beliefs that these stories may bring one to hear the call of the coyote and the warning of the crow as they look down upon you and lead you safely across the many trails you may follow in your life. Steve now lives in the Portland, Oregon, area with his beloved wife, Joan.
