Description
Book SynopsisOver the past thirty years, a strong canon of Indigenous feminist literature has addressed how Indigenous women are uniquely and dually affected by colonialism and patriarchy. Organized around the notion of 'generations,' this collection brings into conversation new voices of Indigenous feminist theory, knowledge, and experience.
