I’m VERY excited that I was able to get copies of this one for the store.
Let’s be honest — how many of us really understand the treaty system where we live?
We hear words like treaty rights, unceded territory, Indigenous sovereignty, Land Back and reconciliation — but how many of us could confidently explain what they actually mean, or what our own responsibilities are?
Talk Treaty to Me by Crystal Gail Fraser and Sara Komarnisky is a national bestseller written specifically to make this incredibly important subject accessible.
It looks at the history of treaties in Canada, Indigenous sovereignty, unceded territory, land acknowledgements, reconciliation, Land Back, and the ways treaties continue to shape the lives of Indigenous and non-Indigenous people today.
And this matters here.
We live, work, raise our families and run our businesses in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq. Understanding what that actually means is part of understanding the place we call home.
Books like this belong in bookstores, They give us the opportunity to learn things many of us simply weren’t taught.
I was only able to get FOUR copies, and they’ll be on the shelf tomorrow. 😊
If you’ve ever wanted to better understand treaties, reconciliation and our responsibilities as Canadians, this seems like a very good place to start.
