Do you agree with him, or do other days spring to your mind? You have to read it to find out! 7. The Politics of the Canoe The canoe, often seen as a recreational symbol of wilderness escape, is also a political vessel — embodying Indigenous traditions, environ- mental ideals and feminist empowerment. This book gathers insights from advocates, academics and community leaders who reframe the canoe as a vessel for recentring and reclaiming Indigenous sovereignty.

8. Race Rules: What Your Black Friend Won’t Tell You A practical book for white people who want to be allies and to avoid race- based faux pas caused by their own inexperience. 9.

Social pressures and backlash can make us prefer to be silent rather than to speak up. This useful guide will help you to find your voice as an ally and to speak up with understanding.
