Eric Lawton reviewed Indigenous Writes by Chelsea Vowel
Review of 'Indigenous Writes' on 'Storygraph'
5 stars
Every non-Indigenous Canadian should read this book.
It is written in a very chatty, easy to understand way, with no recriminations, in order to educate us on all the myths about Indigenous people that surface on Twitter and in real life every day.
Although I don't really expect all those dyed-in-the-wool racists to be persuaded of anything, there are many with misconceptions about what treaty rights actually exist, about money that Indigenous people receive from taxes and many more.
I learned a lot and the enormous amount of detail and references provided are going to be very useful in conversations with fellow white people who are so sure about our relationships with Indigenous people; sure but wrong.
