Recs if you like A Steady Brightness of Being: Truths, Wisdom, and Love from Celebrated Indigenous Voices...

In June 2021, the Government of Canada made Sept. 30 a federal statutory day. It is observed as the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. Here's a list of books to encourage reflection and learning. This is not complete, please share your suggestions.

This is a list of non-fiction books that are meant to educate readers on the various issues faced by the indigenous peoples of Turtle Island - but focusing on the land called Canada. Feel free to give recommendations. The list will focus on learning how the Canadian government systematically committed genocide, case studies on various topics, and decolonization. There will also be a list of academic articles to read related to these topics in the comments section.

Let's break through the fog of the capitalist, racist, colonial system that is holding all of us down. For a new world, we need new perspectives. (this list is from a white european girl, so PLEASE also seek out recommendations from BIPOC creators!!)

These are books about dms/emails or books told largely in dm/email/letter format. Recommendations welcomed.
