“A large element of the novel focuses on the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) and the complicated nuances of adoption and the foster care system. Angeline doesn’t just mention ICWA in passing; she delves into its significance as a legal safeguard designed to protect Native children from being unjustly removed from their homes, communities, and cultures.” #Indigenous #NDNlit https://www.indian-affairs.org/blog/searching-for-home-a-sisters-in-the-wind-review

“When I first started writing these books, I just wanted readers to know that First Nations people are people first, ... My first thought was to write in a way that would allow the reader to know more about First Nations people, by walking with them and seeing the highs and lows, and in this way give readers a sense of what it was like."

“Although it's a book that draws on horrific history, Jones is tired of the media putting Indigenous stories in a ‘sacred space.’ He says it's patronizing to automatically ‘give the stories a pass. That to me is super insulting,’ says Jones. ‘I would much rather my work fail on its own merit, than succeed just because it's Indigenous.’" https://www.cbc.ca/arts/q/horror-writer-stephen-graham-jones-explains-what-it-really-means-to-be-a-vampire-1.7573755 #Indigenous #literature #NDNlit
