Description

"This book challenges readers through a series of sensitive conversations exploring decolonization, Indigenization, healing, and every person's individual responsibility to truth and reconciliation. Centered around the Orange Shirt Day movement, and a National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, these conversations encourage readers to unpack and reckon with denialism, biases, privilege, and the journey forward, on both a personal and a national level. Within each chapter, Phyllis offers show more insights on these topics, and stories from her personal journey, which co-author and Métis scholar, Kristy McLeod, helps readers further navigate. Through empathetic truth-telling, this book offers an opportunity to witness, reflect, heal, and be intentional about the seeds we hope to plant for the future, together." -- show less
