Walking Together, Working Together, Engaging Wisdom for Indigenous Well-Being

By Leslie Main Johnson (Editor), Janelle Marie Baker (Editor)

Description

Walking Together, Working Together is a collection that focuses on the concept of holistic health from multiple Indigenous perspectives. This book features the voices of healers, academics, physicians, and Elders, as they address topics ranging from treating illness to food and plant knowledge, and much more. Most chapters are short and could easily be used in classrooms, whether for health and life skills lessons, or in science and social studies classes. While each chapter can be read on its own, the volume’s true strength lies in the variety of voices that it brings together. Because it highlights many cultures, the collection could be useful for breaking down pan-Indigenous stereotypes. This work includes several diagrams and images that can be used to showcase examples of Indigenous approaches to healing and well-being.
