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 \u003ci\u003eMy Conversations with Canadians\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 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 has had as a First Nations leader, a woman, a mother, and grandmother over the course of her life. Lee Maracle's \u003ci\u003eMy Conversations with Canadians\u003c\/i\u003e presents a tour de force exploration into the writer's own history and a reimagining of the future of our nation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"My Conversations With Canadians offer[s] strength and solidarity to Indigenous readers, and a generous guide to ally-ship for non-Indigenous readers.
