Primary audience is Canadian literature scholars Contributes
directly to current conversations in both contemporary Canadian
media and academic circles around the relationship between bodies
and land. For instance, Jordan Abel's piece addresses the
possibilities and difficulties of reclaiming Nishga/Nisga'a
identity in the aftermath of the residential school experience.
Karina Vernon's essay addresses how Black subjects might respond in
a moment when they learn that the home they've been longing for is
already inhabited. Dina Al-Kassim's essay addresses kinships of
dispossession. This book is an effort to steer Canadian literatures
out of controversy for controversy's sake, and into a flow of
productive, relation-building discussion. It does this by
addressing the substance of Canadian and Turtle Island writing,
particularly writing by Indigenous, Black and Asian writers. While
it avoids empty controversy, it embraces rigorous argument.
Addresses issues related to Indigenous and diaspora literatures,
settler culture, Black studies, Asian Canadian studies,
decolonization, critical race studies, multiculturalism, land
issues Particularly for those interested in the concepts of
intersectionality, solidarity, and relationality
