<p><b>The long-awaited collection of talks, presentations, prayers, and ceremonies of renowned Mi’kmaw Elder, human rights activist, and language and culture warrior, Sister Dorothy Moore.<\/b><\/p>
\n<p>Mi’kmaw Elder Sister Dorothy Moore has spent a lifetime advocating for the rights of her people. As a well-known educator and a survivor of the Shubenacadie Indian Residential School, she has broken down systemic barriers, leading the Mi’kmaq to access all levels of education, and worked tirelessly to reclaim and promote Indigenous ways of knowing and being.<br>
\nIn <i>A Journey of Love and Hope<\/i>, Sister Dorothy’s words are collected in print, as she originally spoke them, for the first time. Included are speeches, talks, presentations, and ceremonies delivered between 1985 and 2015 to universities, government departments, and Indigenous organizations and gatherings. Thematic sections include Culture and Language, Spirituality, Racism, Education, and Prayers and Ceremonies, framed by <i>Ikantek<\/i> (introductions) from well-known Mi’kmaw writers and educators, as well as an Associate Sister of the Sisters of St Martha.<br>
\nSister Dorothy’s talks and presentations will inspire and serve to disrupt the dominant narratives of complex Indigenous issues such as colonialism, oppression, racism, and discrimination. <i>A Journey of Love and Hope<\/i> gives a voice to Mi’kmaw lived experiences and provides a valuable resource for use in schools, postsecondary education institutions, and communities. Her words are an inspiration to all Treaty people.<br>
\nFeatures original illustrations by celebrated Mi’kmaw artist Gerald Gloade and appendices, including a complete list of Sister Moore’s talks and presentations and a timeline of life events.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
