“Leather and Naughahyde” by Marilyn Dumont So, I'm having coffee with this treaty guy from up north and we're laughing at how crazy ‘the mooniyaw’ are in the city and the con- versation comes around to where I'm from, as it does in under- ground languages, in the oblique way it does to find out someone's status without actually asking, and knowing this, I say I'm Metis like it’s an apology and he says, ‘mmh,’ like he forgives me, like he’s got a big heart and mine's pumping diluted blood and his voice has sounded well-fed up till this point, but now it goes thin like he’s across the room taking another look and when he returns he’s got ‘this look,’ that says he’s leather and I'm naughahyde. Reprinted with permission from A Really Good Brown Girl (London: Brick, 1996, p. 58).
I relate to this so much; I also have the layer that I am #urban #metis and white in appearance with a #settler paternal heritage.
#Lateralviolence needs to stop. It was #colonialism that divided our people, not #Indigenous ourselves.

For Native American Heritage Month, I’m finally getting around to reading “There There” by Tommy Orange. I’m only 120 pgs in and my heart already hurts.
That prologue though…💔

Some other #IndigenousLit in the dark fiction genre I have enjoyed: The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones (2020), Moon of the Crusted Snow by Waubgeshig Rice (2018) (Waub also has a great story called Limbs in Never Whistle At Night), and currently reading Bad Cree by Jessica Johns (2023).

A 50 Books for 50 Years graphic featuring the cover of Moon of the Crusted Snow by Waubgeshig Rice. The cover design depicts a minimalist, snowy winter scene with barren trees and telephone poles. Near the bottom of the cover is an illustration of a van half-buried in deep snow. The title is written across the cover in large grey font, and at the top is a quote from Eden Robinson reading, “Chilling in the best way possible.” The author’s name appears at the bottom in uppercase letters. The text reads: “Literary Press Group of Canada, Celebrating 50 Years Supporting Literature. ECW Press.”
❄️ Moon of the Crusted Snow by @waub.bsky.social (@ecwpress.bsky.social)

Starting a new read that explores Native themes—really looking forward to learning more through story. Meanwhile, my dog is passed out like he’s the one doing the emotional work. 😅📚 #BookTok #ShowMeYourBookmark #CurrentRead #TBRPile #IndigenousLit #read #readers #reading #book #books #bookish #fyp

We are going to ignore that the background remover also shaved my head somehow, but I was able to finally get a full review out! Love me a novella, doubly so one by Stephen Graham Jones.

One thing you might not know about me is I love reading and promoting Canadian and Indigenous Lit. You will see more of this as of the 23rd because Canada Reads is dropping their short list and champions. I can't wait!

Late to the party but glad I finally joined - #CherieDimaline writes with wit, intensity and a clear sense of how to engage. Glad to end the year taking this one off the TBR list after so long #IndigenousLit #YALit
