Elements of Indigenous Style: A Guide for Writing By and About Indigenous Peoples, 2nd Ed.

Continuing the work begun by Gregory Younging (Opaskwayak Cree Nation), Warren Cariou (Métis) and his editorial team build on the original Elements of Indigenous Style with updated recommendations and best practices. This book is a succinct guide to writing respectfully on any project that involves Indigenous Peoples and knowledges. It provides clear guidelines and examples to help any individual regardless of their level of prior knowledge. The tone and style of the text are very accessible and could be read in entirety, but excerpts could easily be used in lessons, given the way sections are broken down by topic. While this resource would be an excellent tool for educators who want to imbue their writing (be it lesson plans, exams, class slides, or more) with the best practices for writing about Indigenous Peoples, it would also be a valuable tool to introduce to students. Aspects of this text could be valuable for discussions around respect and treatment of Indigenous knowledges in English or social studies lessons. More generally, this book would provide all readers with beneficial advice relating to terminology and treatment of Indigenous voices, which could support all areas of their studies.
