A Recognition of Being: Reconstructing Native Womanhood |
| Is there a special role for native women? Author Kim Anderson,
herself a Cree-Métis woman, asserts that native womanhood "is not about
simply playing certain roles, or adopting a pre-set identity; rather... it is
an ongoing exercise" in finding the balance between one's individuality, place
in a family, the broader community and nation, and the spiritual world. Anderson explores how the native female identity has been dismantled over the years through colonization, abuse and disrespect, both within and outside the native community. She shows how native women are reclaiming their cultural traditions and creating positive images of themselves true to their heritage. Written by Kim Anderson. Published by Sumach Press, 2000. |
