In Indigena, Native Canadians address historical injustice with passion and clarity, while offering hope for the future. Eight writers and nineteen visual artists respond to the five hundredth anniversary of Columbus's landfall to the Americas, offering sharp counterpoint to the overused and inaccurate theme of "discovery", and celebrating both diversity and cultural tenacity.
The work in this book has been created especially for the Canadian Museum of Civilation exhibition, INDIGENA.
