la politique, la culture populaire et la contestation sociale, King propose une réflexion inédite sur notre relation envers les peuples autochtones. L'Indien réel, affirme l'auteur, ne ressemble guère à la figure du sauvage, tirée des représentations entretenues par les Blancs nord-américains. Avec un esprit critique bien aiguisé, Thomas King démontre que les histoires sont la clé et, sans doute, le seul espoir pour se comprendre. Il nous oblige à les écouter... pour mieux appréhender les réalités de notre monde. 2015.Only in Canada you say: a treasury of Canadian language

Par Lee Maracle. 2017
On her first book tour at the age of 26, Lee Maracle was asked a question from the audience, one…
she couldn't possibly answer at that moment. But she has been thinking about it ever since. As time has passed, she has been asked countless similar questions, all of them too big to answer, but not too large to contemplate. These questions, which touch upon subjects such as citizenship, segregation, labour, law, prejudice and reconciliation (to name a few), are the heart of "My Conversations with Canadians". In prose essays that are both conversational and direct, Maracle seeks not to provide any answers to these questions she has lived with for so long. Rather, she thinks through each one using a multitude of experiences she's had as a Canadian, a First Nations leader, a woman and mother and grandmother over the course of her life. Presents a tour de force exploration into the writer's own history and a re-imagining of the future of our nation. Bestseller. 2017. Uniform title: Essays.Follows the story of a famous Ojibwe medicine man, his gifted grandson, and remarkable water drum. This drum, and forty…
other artefacts, were given away by a Canadian museum to an American Anishinaabe group that had no family or community connections to the collection. Many years passed before the drum was returned to the family. Matthews takes us through this astonishing set of events from multiple perspectives, exploring community and museum viewpoints, visiting the ceremonial group leader in Wisconsin, and finally looking back from the point of view of the drum. The book contains a powerful Anishinaabe interpretive perspective on repatriation and on anthropology itself. Winner of the 2017 Alexander Kennedy Isbister Award for Non-fiction. 2016.
