Summary:
"Denied her Indigenous status, Lynn Gehl has been fighting her entire life to reclaim mino-pimadiziwin - the good life. Exploring Anishinaabeg philosophy and Anishinaabeg conceptions of truth, Gehl shows how she came to locate her spirit and decolonize her identity, thereby becoming, in her words, "fully human." Gehl also provides a harsh critique of Canada and takes on important anti-colonial battles, including sex discrimination in the Indian Act and the destruction of sacred places. Lynn Gehl is an Algonquin Anishinaabe-kwe from the Ottawa River Valley. She studied chemical technology in college. Her undergraduate studies were in psychology and cultural anthropology. She is the author of The Truth that Wampum Tells: my debwewin on the Algonquin land claims process"--Provided by publisher.
