David A. Robertson (Norway House Cree Nation) gives us 52 practical suggestions — one for each week of the year — to support and connect with Indigenous people. 52 Ways to Reconcile lists tasks as simple and enjoyable as making Bannock, to as challenging as taking personal action toward reconciliation. Matthew Fletcher (Grand Traverse Band of Ottawa and Chippewa Indians) has devoted himself to the legal profession, becoming one of the most respected experts in Indian Law. In his spare time he has written and published a collection of fictional short stories, Stick Houses. He draws from his own observations and stories from his family to illustrate the lives of modern Native Americans. We'll add Matthew Fletcher's Stick Houses, and David A. Robertson's 52 Ways to Reconcile to the Native Bookshelf.
Through his books and public speaking, David A. Robertson has dedicated his career to sharing stories about Indigenous people. His latest book, 52 Ways to Reconcile, is a guide for all of us to take action when it comes to reconciliation — and shows how small acts can have a big impact. Like all of David's work, the book tackles hard truths with a gentle touch and a profound sense of hope. David joins Mattea Roach to talk about educating children on Indigenous histories, how his father influenced his life and work and why "reconciliation" is a journey ... not a destination.If you enjoyed this conversation, check out these episodes:Tanya Talaga: Searching for her great-great grandmother — a story of family, truth and survival Imani Perry: Tracing blue through Black American life

If you're listening to this podcast, my bet is that you, like me, are a reader. You love a good book, and if you're lucky, you've loved them all your life because someone introduced the power of stories to you. My parents read to me when I was young, but the real gateway drug for me was my dad making up stories. As a reader, I followed the conventional path. I started with kids' books and moved on to what would be called ‘YA' now, then diving into Literature in high school, and eventually moving on to attain both a Bachelor's and Master's Degree in Literature at university. For someone who is happily child-free, I read a lot of Young Adult literature. In part, it's because my wife trained as a YA librarian, so she's always finding great books, but also just because they're great books! It takes a certain gift to write a book that's brilliant for children and young adults, and grown-ups, like me. The very best of these books are wise, timeless, and fearless. David A. Robertson is one of those people who can write for young people. I mean, he can really write for young people. He's won numerous awards, including the Governor General's Literary Award, McNally Robinson Book for Young People Award, and the Indigenous Writer of the Year Award at the High Plains Book Awards. Acknowledging these accolades is easy, but the same can't be said for pinning down his genre. So far, he's published over 25 books across multiple genres and has no plans of stopping anytime soon.

The best professional learning arises from a true need. This fall, nine Fort La Bosse teachers came together to apply for a Manitoba Teachers' Society collaborative learning team grant. We were eager to learn more about Indigenous education, culture, and history, with the goal of increasing our knowledge and comfort level. Although enhancing classroom practice was the ultimate goal, we felt that real change would be difficult without a deeper understanding of the issues. We decided that the best way to accomplish this was through reading and discussing Indigenous literature in a facilitated book club format. With the generous support of MTS and facilitator Bryanne DeRoo, the following teachers met four times: Brenda Masson, Cheryl Klassen, Debbie Leslie, Lisa Pearn, Julie Hole, Julie Sabourin, Tricia Hayward, Karyn Penner, and Devon Caldwell. We read one book together, The Reason You Walk by Wab Kinew, and then made individual book choices to explore a number of Indigenous authors such as David A. Robertson, Jesse Thistle, and Richard Wagamese. We also participated in a powerful session on Indigenous language, stories, and the path to reconciliation with MTS staff officer Sarah Gazan. We're excited to share what we read and what our biggest takeaways are in this brand-new episode of Teach like a Bosse. We also plan to continue learning together as a book club next year. If this sounds like your kind of professional learning opportunity, please reach out to any of this year's members and let us know. Thanks for tuning in!

In the swirling clouds of Venus, the families of la colonie live on floating plant-like trawlers, salvaging what they can in the fierce acid rain and crackling storms.
