Spirit & Intent: A Collection of Short Stories and Other Writings is an illustrated collection of short stories and other writings exploring the importance of peace, the rights and responsibilities of Indigenous women, Treaties and reflections on the responsibilities that accompany treaty rights, as well as the importance of decolonization in healing and reconciliation. Drawing inspiration from research, stories, teachings and life experiences, Spirit & Intent takes an honest and creative approach in considering the important relationship questions facing our families and communities today. An important entry in this intriguing collection is the essay about Jikonsaseh, also known as the Peace Queen. Odadrihonyanisoh (Sara General) is Mohawk from Six Nations of the Grand River Territory. She writes MG and YA speculative fiction (science fiction and fantasy), inspired by themes and events in Haudenosaunee history. This vital collection adds the woman’s voice to our understanding of Haudenosaunee worldview. Highly recommended. Show more
