- Description
From Indigenous involvement in the World Wars to long-standing Indigenous plant knowledge, Wayne Arthurson (Cree) explores many examples of Indigenous knowledge and innovation. This work encompasses examples from across North America and addresses colonial and media misrepresentations. Despite its historical focus, Arthurson explores various topics with accessible language and short chapters, each with sections that make it easy to pull excerpts that connect to particular lessons for earlier learners. Chapters could be assigned to students as a springboard for further research into Indigenous histories for social studies lessons, or simply to provide some Indigenous perspectives on historical events. The exploration of Indigenous plant knowledge, such as the chapter on maize, could be used in science lessons to discuss companion planting and symbiosis in plant systems.
