The Ojibwe of Great Spirit Island; Canoe Kids Volume 1

The Ojibwe of Great Spirit Island; Canoe Kids Volume 1

Canoe Kids Vol. 1, The Ojibwe of Great Spirit Island is the first issue of a 24 edition series designed as family books for people of all ages. The mandate for the full-colour book (nearly 200 full colour high res photographs) is Exploring Indigenous Cultures through Authentic Indigenous Voices. The publication balances culture, equity and the environment in a beautiful mix of the pictorial quality and in depth editorial content. 

 

A geopolitical view of the world prior to long distance travel by colonizing forces looked much different than it does today. For example, the borders that now exist between across the Americas were not present 500 years ago. Indigenous people moved freely across what is now a border, and in some communities, even straddled it. Tribal territories were respected and elaborate trades routes existed from east to west, north to south. To begin to understand cultures that have existed for millennia, you must appreciate their world view is so much more than just the last 500 years. We invite you to take this journey with us, to listen and learn from Indigenous peoples who have occupied these lands since time immemorial.
