Indigenous Culture-Based Approaches to Waking Up, Taking Action and Doing the Work of Healing Written specifically for young adults, reluctant readers, and literacy learners, this book explains the traumatic effects of colonization on Indigenous people and communities and how trauma alters an individual’s brain, body, and behavior. It explores how learned patterns of behavior. ways people adapt to trauma to survive are passed down within family systems, affecting the functioning of entire communities. The book details the transformative work being done in urban and on-reserve communities through community-led projects and Indigenous-run institutions and community agencies. These stories offer concrete examples of the ways in which Indigenous peoples and communities are capable of healing in small and big ways — and they challenge readers to consider what the dominant society must do to create systemic change. Full of bold graphics and illustration, it is a much-needed resource for Indigenous kids and the people who love them and work with them.
