Product Description -
Honouring the scholarship of Metis matriarchsWhen surveying the field of Indigenous studies, Laura Forsythe and Jennifer Markides recognized a critical need for not only a Metis-focused volume, but one focused on the contributions of Metis women. To address this need, they brought together work by new and established scholars, artists, storytellers, and community leaders that reflects the diversity of research created by Metis women as it is lived, considered, conceptualized, and re-imagined. With writing by Maria Campbell, Emma LaRocque, and other pioneers of Metis studies, Around the Kitchen Table looks beyond the patriarchy to document and celebrate the scholarship of Metis women. Focusing on experiences in post-secondary environments, Around the Kitchen Table necessarily traverses a range of methodologies. Spanning disciplines of social work, education, history, health care, urban studies, sociology, archaeology, and governence, contributors bring their own stories to explorations of spirituality, material culture, colonialism, land-based education, sexuality, language, and representation. The result is an expansive, heartfelt, and accessible “community of Metis thought” as articulated by Markides in her introduction to the volume. Reverent and revelatory, this collection centres the strong aunties and grandmothers who have shaped Metis communities, culture, and identities with teachings shared in classrooms, auditoriums, and around the kitchen table.
