As an Elder once said, "Learn one Cree word a day for 100 days, and
emerge a different person." In 100 Days of Cree , Neal McLeod
offers us a portal into another way of understanding the
universe--and our place within it--while demonstrating why this
funny, vibrant, and sometimes salacious language is "the sexiest of
them all" (according to Tomson Highway). Based on a series of
Facebook posts, the 100 short chapters or "days" in the book
present a chain of related words, some dealing with the
traditional--the buffalo hunt, the seasons--and others cheekily
capturing the detritus of modern life--from Internet slang to
Johnny Cash songs to Viagra. The result is both an introduction to
the most widely spoken Indigenous language in Canada and the
opportunity to see the world, and ourselves, in another way.
