Includes bibliographical references and index."The life and death of Annie Pootoogook (1969-2016) became a national story when her body was recovered from the Rideau River in Ottawa in September 2016. The complexities of her short 47 years speak to both possibility and heartbreak, issues of truth and reconciliation, the richness of community, and the depths of tragedy. Her arresting pencil crayon drawings recording the details of her life have had a significant impact on both the contemporary art of her Inuit community and Canada at large. Her drawings and her legacy, depict a community in transition; one that respects its past and is negotiating its future."--Co-published by: McMichael Canadian Art Collection.- Subjects: Biographies.; Pootoogook, Annie, 1969-2016.; Inuit artists;

- Me tomorrow : Indigenous views on the future / by Taylor, Drew Hayden,1962-editor.;
Includes bibliographical references."First Nations, Métis and Inuit artists, activists, educators and writers, youth and elders come together to envision Indigenous futures in Canada and around the world. Discussing everything from language renewal to sci-fi, this collection is a powerful and important expression of imagination rooted in social critique, cultural experience, traditional knowledge, activism and the multifaceted experiences of Indigenous people on Turtle Island. In Me Tomorrow ... Darrel J. McLeod, Cree author from Treaty-8 territory in Northern Alberta, blends the four elements of the Indigenous cosmovision with the four directions of the medicine wheel to create a prayer for the power, strength and resilience of Indigenous peoples. Autumn Peltier, Anishinaabe water-rights activist, tells the origin story of her present and future career in advocacy--and how the nine months she spent in her mother's womb formed her first water teaching. When the water breaks, like snow melting in the spring, new life comes. Lee Maracle, acclaimed Stó:lō Nation author and educator, reflects on cultural revival--imagining a future a century from now in which Indigenous people are more united than ever before. Other essayists include Cyndy and Makwa Baskin, Norma Dunning, Shalan Joudry, Shelley Knott-Fife, Tracie Léost, Stephanie Peltier, Romeo Saganash, Drew Hayden Taylor and Raymond Yakeleya.
