The Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG), the Idle No More movement, and the Wet'suwet'en struggle against pipeline development are just a few examples of the ongoing Indigenous-led struggles for sovereignty and decolonization. As more Canadians become aware of the ongoing impacts of settler colonialism on these lands, they are asking themselves what role they can play in addressing these issues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLiving in Indigenous Sovereignty provides a valuable resource for settler Canadians seeking to understand their role and engage in solidarity work with Indigenous Peoples. The book lifts up the wisdom of Indigenous scholars, activists, and knowledge keepers who offer insights into what they are asking of non-Indigenous people. It also shares the experiences of thirteen white settler Canadians who are deeply committed to working in solidarity with Indigenous Peoples.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThrough these stories, settler Canadians are able to gain inspiration and guidance on how to live honourably in relationship with Indigenous Peoples, laws, and lands. Authors Carlsson and Rowe argue that achieving true reconciliation and healing requires a reorientation of settler Canadians' lives toward living in Indigenous sovereignty. This means recognizing that these lands are Indigenous territories, containing relationships, laws, protocols, stories, obligations, and opportunities that have been understood and practiced by Indigenous peoples since time immemorial.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCollectively, these stories offer a powerful testament to the resilience and determination of Indigenous Peoples in their fight for sovereignty and decolonization. They provide a roadmap for settler Canadians to understand the transformations that are necessary to shift their current relations and find a new way forward, together. By engaging in dialogue, learning from Indigenous perspectives, and taking action, settler Canadians can play a vital role in building a more just and equitable society for all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 468g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 152 x 230 x 19 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781773632384\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Elizabeth Carlson-manatha,Gladys Rowe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44095327666426,"sku":"9781773632384","price":19.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646149561782_book.jpg?v=1646911122","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/living-in-indigenous-sovereignty-9781773632384","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
