Abstract
Written by leading Indigenous and non-Indigenous scholars, Voicing Identity examines the issue of cultural appropriation in the contexts of researching, writing, and teaching about Indigenous peoples. This book grapples with the question: who is qualified to engage in these activities and how can this be done appropriately and respectfully? The authors address these questions from their own individual perspectives and experiences, often revealing personal struggles and their ongoing attempts to resolve them. There is diversity in perspectives and approaches, but also a common goal: to conduct research and teach in respectful ways that enhance understanding of Indigenous histories, cultures, and rights, and promote reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. Bringing together contributors with diverse backgrounds and unique experiences, Voicing Identity will be of interest to students and scholars studying Indigenous issues as well as anyone seeking to engage in the work of making Canada a model for just relations between the original peoples and newcomers.-- Provided by publisher.

Abstract
Native American tribes living on the Great Plains have long attracted the attention of Euro-American scholars, inspiring over the years a vast quantity of research. The contributors to this volume discuss and evaluate all the major works of scholarship devoted to the culture of Plains Indians, from the arrival of these peoples on the North American grasslands thousands of years ago, through their subsequent Village and High Plains lifeways, to their present-day adaption to reservation and urban life. Toghether, the twenty-two authors undertake a comprehensive survey of the state of anthropology on the Plains: what it has been, what it is now, and what it may offer theory and method in the future. -- From interior dustjacket

Abstract
Unpapered is a collection of personal narratives by Indigenous writers exploring the meaning and limits of Native American identity beyond its legal margins. Native heritage is neither simple nor always clearly documented, and citizenship is a legal and political matter of sovereign nations determined by such criteria as blood quantum, tribal rolls, or community involvement. Those who claim a Native cultural identity often have family stories of tenuous ties dating back several generations. Given that tribal enrollment was part of a string of government programs and agreements calculated to quantify and dismiss Native populations, many writers who identify culturally and are recognized as Native Americans do not hold tribal citizenship. With essays by Trevino Brings Plenty, Deborah Miranda, Steve Russell, and Kimberly Wieser, among others, Unpapered charts how current exclusionary tactics began as a response to “pretendians”—non-indigenous people assuming a Native identity for job benefits—and have expanded to an intense patrolling of identity that divides Native communities and has resulted in attacks on peoples’ professional, spiritual, emotional, and physical states. An essential addition to Native discourse, Unpapered shows how social and political ideologies have created barriers for Native people truthfully claiming identities while simultaneously upholding stereotypes --Publisher's description.

Abstract
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.-- Provided by publisher.

Abstract
Me´tis Rising draws on a remarkable cross-section of perspectives to tell the histories, stories, and dreams of people from varied backgrounds, demonstrating that there is no single Me´tis experience - only a common sense of belonging and a commitment to justice. The contributors to this unique collection, most of whom are Me´tis themselves, examine often-neglected aspects of Me´tis existence in Canada. They trace a turbulent course, illustrating how Me´tis leaders were born out of the need to address abhorrent social and economic disparities following the Me´tis-Canadian war of 1885. They talk about the long and arduous journey to rebuild the Me´tis nation from a once marginalized and defeated people; their accounts ranging from personal reflections on identity to tales of advocacy against poverty and poor housing. And they address the indictment of the jurisdictional gap whereby neither federal nor provincial governments would accept governance responsibility towards Me´tis people. Me´tis Rising is an extraordinary work that exemplifies how contemporary Me´tis identity has been forged by social, economic, and political concerns into a force to be reckoned with."-- Provided by publisher.

Abstract
The Canadian Mountain Assessment provides a first-of-its-kind look at what we know, do not know, and need to know about mountain systems in Canada. The assessment is based on insights from First Nations, Métis, and Inuit knowledges of mountains, as well as findings from an extensive assessment of pertinent academic literature. Its inclusive knowledge co-creation approach brings these multiple forms of evidence together in ways that enhance our collective understanding of mountains in Canada, while also respecting and maintaining the integrity of different knowledge systems. The Canadian Mountain Assessment is a text-based document, but also includes a variety of visual materials as well as access to video recordings of oral knowledges shared by Indigenous individuals from mountain areas in Canada. The assessment is the result of over three years of work, during which time the initiative played an important role in connecting and cultivating relationships between mountain knowledge holders from across Canada. -- Provided by publisher.

Abstract
The path to decolonization is difficult and complex, and can even be contradictory at times, as when an Indigenous community enlists the same corporate sponsor that will destroy its natural environment to provide sport programming for its youth. There is no easy way forward. The Black Lives Matter movement, and their massive followers on social media, propelled forward discussions about the inequities that Covid-19 highlighted with unprecedented momentum. Indigenous people in Canada voiced their concerns in solidarity, calling attention to disparities they faced in everything from impoverished Indigenous health care initiatives to the overrepresentation of Indigenous people in the Canadian justice system, demanding to be heard alongside systemic change. Structural adjustments were afoot, including changes in the professional sport leagues. In both the United States and Canada, people witnessed the toppling of racist sports team names and logos in the spring and summer, not the least of which included the American Washington NFL team (Redskins) and the Canadian Edmonton CFL team (Eskimos). Clearly Indigenous people and their allies saw sport as a part of this desire for social change. This multi-authored collection contributes to that desire by bringing the work of Indigenous and non-Indigenous allied scholars together to explore the history of sport, physical activity, and embodied physical culture in the Indigenous context. Including chapters that address Indigenous topics beyond the political boundaries of Canada, including the US, Australia, New Zealand/Aotearoa, and Kenya, this collection considers questions such as: How can the history of sport (a colonizing practice with European origins) exist in dialogue with Indigenous voices to open up possibilities for reconsidering the history of modern sport? How can Indigenous and anti-oppressive research methodologies/methods inform the study of sport history? What are the ethics and responsibilities associated with conducting an Indigenous sport or recreation history? How can sport history as a discipline be open to the study of traditional land-based recreation? How can the meanings of "sport" be made more inclusive to include a variety of recreational practices? How can sport historians learn from histories of colonization and how can they contribute to a more reciprocal approach to knowledge formation through Indigenous community engagement? How can the discipline of sport history meaningfully support movements of Indigenous resurgence, regeneration, and decolonization? -- Provided by publisher.

Abstract
Elders and leaders remind us that telling and amplifying histories is key for healing. Remembering Our Relations is an ambitious collaborative oral history project that shares the story of Wood Buffalo National Park and the De¨nesu line´ peoples it displaced. Wood Buffalo National Park is located in the heart of De¨nesu line´ homelands, where Dené people have lived from time immemorial. Central to the creation, expansion, and management of this park, Canada’s largest at nearly 45, 000 square kilometers, was the eviction of De¨nesu line´ people from their home, the forced separation of Dene families, and restriction of their Treaty rights. Remembering Our Relations tells the history of Wood Buffalo National Park from a Dene perspective and within the context of Treaty 8. Oral history and testimony from Dene Elders, knowledge-holders, leaders, and community members place De¨nesu line´ voices first. With supporting archival research, this book demonstrates how the founding, expansion, and management of Wood Buffalo National Park fits into a wider pattern of promises broken by settler colonial governments managing land use throughout the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. By prioritizing De¨nesu line´ histories Remembering Our Relations deliberately challenges how Dene experiences have been erased, and how this erasure has been used to justify violence against De¨nesu line´ homelands and people. Amplifying the voices and lives of the past, present, and future, Remembering Our Relations is a crucial step in the journey for healing and justice De¨nesu line´ peoples have been pursuing for over a century. -- Provided by publisher.
