Although Ruth DyckFehderau is the writer, this is a community project, owned and controlled by the James Bay Cree health dept (because stories are medicine). The intent of these stories is to help others although the book contains difficult content the stories are often uplifting - no need to be afraid of what is on the page.
Twenty stories of James Bay Cree people recovering from Indian Residential School trauma -- either because they attended or because a family member did -- and, in the aftermath, building meaningful lives. A tough, often funny, uplifting, and deeply human book.
