September Virtual Book Club: Warrior Girl Unearthed by Angeline Boulley

Wednesday, September 25th
7PM – 9PM
This is a virtual event.

Looking to expand your reading list and discuss a variety of issues and topics important to Native people? Please join our virtual book club, As They Speak: Native Voices in Today’s Literature. Based on a variety of topics and featuring a range of genres, all of the books we will be reading have been written by contemporary authors. This month, we will be reading and discussing Warrior Girl Unearthed by Angeline Boulley (Ojibwe). Set in the same community as last month’s book, Firekeeper’s Daughter, this novel centers around an Ojibwe teen who discovers a plot to profit off robbed Indigenous graves. With the help of a ragtag group of friends, she takes matters into her own hands to protect her community, and bring her ancestors home where they belong, while staring down challenges including generational grudges, bureaucratic subterfuge, unnerving stories of missing women, family secrets, and painful realities about the legacy of colonialism. Join the conversation hosted by IAIS Staff on Zoom.
