Fast-becoming an uber-fan of SG Jones, this is a 3-volume graphic novel of time traveling in an effort to prevent an environmental apocalypse. At its core, stop the colonization of the Americas.

Graphic novel of indigenous youth caught in choices between gang violence and tradition. Promises to be a rough read!

#IndigenousPeoples’ Day: #LGBTQ+ films, TV shows, and docs to watch

Bernardo Sim, Mon, October 13, 2025

"Hollywood has had a long history of excluding Indigenous peoples from mainstream media — often turning real stories and individuals into senseless caricatures that are more widely understood by the general public.

"Thankfully, several young #Indigenous writers, directors, actors, musicians, and performance artists have been actively fighting back in recent years to reclaim narratives, be accurately visible, and have ownership of their own stories.

"Though we’re still far from an ideal standard, reflecting on this painful history and looking forward to a more equitable future are great activities to honor Indigenous Peoples’ Day. Below, a list of films, TV shows, and documentaries that center and/or feature LGBTQ+ Indigenous identities."

A BREATHTAKINGLY ORIGINAL FUSION of European and Indigenous American mythologies adds a dimension of supernatural horror to a novel already overflowing with the everyday horrors of colonialism and rapacious profiteering. Beyond stunning. SOLID A

I have finally set aside more time for reading and have got back in to reading Quality of Light
by Richard #Wagamese

I really love how Richard #writes. He so effectively evokes the emotion he is building for that moment.

I am just a hundred and some #pages in, and it is a wonderful read so far.

STUNNING REIMAGINING OF CLASSIC science fiction themes from a distinctively Comanche perspective. Spaceships and family ties and legends and absolutely unforgettable characters weave a thrilling intergalactic adventure. A MINUS

Poetry readers, I highly recommend A FAMILY OF DREAMERS by indigenous poet Samantha Nock.

Here is an excerpt from her poem "Ceremony"

"touch your spine.
is it there?

touch your lungs.
are they okay?
now pull out your ribcage.

cut your hair and weave a mat with the strands.
stretch your skin over your bones and enter
your shelter.

light a fire, never let it go out."

It's time to meet the speakers for Writing the Occult: Connections to Land, and if you read her novella from last year, you'll know why we're excited to have Tiffany Morris joining us... 🧵⬇️

AT THE INTERSECTION OF MAGIC AND THE EVERYDAY, this fluid and mythical tale traces the mourning journey of a Diné (Navajo) man across the colonized continent. Lovely and poetic prose rich with imagery. A MINUS

As the far right is attacking decolonization, e.g. Rufo and Musk, here's a free resource: Whose Land Is It Anyway? A Manual for Decolonization.

"We are pleased to announce the publication of Whose Land Is It Anyway? A Manual for Decolonization; inspired by a 2016 speaking tour by Arthur Manuel, less than a year before his untimely passing in January 2017. The book contains two essays from Manuel, described as the Nelson Mandela of Canada, and essays from renowned Indigenous writers Taiaiake Alfred, Glen Coulthard, Russell Diabo, Beverly Jacobs, Melina Laboucan-Massimo, Kanahus Manuel, Jeffrey McNeil-Seymour, Pamela Palmater, Shiri Pasternak, Nicole Schabus, Senator Murray Sinclair, and Sharon Venne. FPSE is honoured to support this publication.

You can download Whose Land Is It Anyway? A Manual for Decolonization for free as pdf and ePub from the site https://fpse.ca/decolonization_manual_whose_land_is_it_anyway

BRILLIANT, AUDACIOUS HORROR novel combines thriller and slasher traditions with a strong evocation of the bitter, implacable harshness of an Idaho winter and the lingering power of Indigenous stories. A MINUS

@indigenousauthors Loved NIGHT OF THE LIVING REZ by Morgan Talty - intertwined short stories not usually my thing, but this was a big exception, eloquent, sad, and really funny.
