A través de documentales como “Caribbean Fantasy” y la película de ficción “Sugar Island”, Johanné da voz a comunidades marginadas con una mirada profundamente humana y simbólica.Juntas reflexionan sobre el peso de la historia en los cuerpos y territorios caribeños, la resiliencia del pueblo haitiano, la herencia de la pobreza y la importancia de construir narrativas más diversas y empáticas.

Perry Firekeeper-Birch has always known who she is - the laidback twin, the troublemaker, the best fisher on Sugar Island. Her aspirations won't ever take her far from home, and she wouldn't have it any other way. But as the rising number of missing Indigenous women starts circling closer to home, as her family becomes embroiled in a high-profile murder investigation, and as greedy grave robbers seek to profit off of what belongs to her Anishinaabe tribe, Perry begins to question everything. In order to reclaim this inheritance for her people, Perry has no choice but to take matters into her own hands. She can only count on her friends and allies, including her overachieving twin and a charming new boy in town with unwavering morals. Old rivalries, sister secrets, and botched heists cannot - will not - stop her from uncovering the mystery before the ancestors and missing women are lost forever.

This meandering collection of loosely-connected short stories is often humorous, poignant, and sometimes mysterious. Laugh as the kids argue over Halloween treats handed out in Brimley. Recall Dorothy's Hamburgers in Sault Ste. Marie. Follow a Sugar Island snowshoe trail as the kids look for Christmas trees. Wonder what strange blue smoke at Dollar Settlement signifies. Discover the magic hidden in April snowflakes. Although told by the kids, adults will remember their own childhood as they read about Flint, Candy, Squeaky, Katie, and their friends.

Michael is a retired business owner where he did private security and now is a Michigan based author where he writes his Michigan Thrillers. Michael has always had a passion for writing but coming out of college, he didn't see being a writer as a way that he could make a living. With this in mind, Michael decided to start his own business in private security. Even though Michael decided to hold off on his writing career, he always knew that he was going to be a fiction writer. Back in college, Michael actually told a professor that he would be a fiction author at age 60. Michael essentially predicted his future as he fulfilled this goal to be a fiction writer while in his 60s. Michael used his life and private security experience to center his writing around his main character named Jack Handler. Jack is a retired Chicago homicide detective and all of Michael's books follow Jack's adventures. While all of Michael's Jack Handler books are fiction, everything that happens in the books are plausible - this is something that Michael really wanted to focus on and takes pride in. Additionally, all of the Jack Handler books are self contained stories. Michael wanted to write his books in a way in which the reader could pick any of the books up and understand the story they are about to read. Michael always recommends starting with "Murder on Sugar Island," and then going from there. In addition to constantly writing, Michael travels to various shows and events throughout Michigan for book signings and meet and greets. I actually had the pleasure to meet Michael at a recent event and get a signed copy of one of his books. From talking to Michael, it is clear just how passionate he is about writing and sharing Jack Handler's adventures with his readers. I'm looking forward to the day that we can all see Jack Handler on a streaming service. In this episode Michael talks about his Jack Handler thrillers, being an author, mindset, and much more!

Aos dezoito anos, a jovem se vê eternamente dividida entre a família da mãe ― branca e conservadora ― e a do pai, indígenas da reserva Ojibwe de Sugar Island, no Michigan. Ela sonha com a nova vida que vai levar ao se mudar para cursar a faculdade, bem longe dos boatos sobre sua origem, mas uma tragédia a obriga a adiar seus planos. Quando Jamie, um lindo e talentoso jogador de hóquei, chega à cidade, a jovem sente que a monotonia dos seus dias está prestes a acabar. Porém, ao testemunhar um assassinato perturbador na reserva, ela se dá conta de que há algo errado ― com Jamie, seus amigos e sua comunidade. De uma hora para outra, Daunis se vê envolvida em uma investigação do FBI sobre uma nova droga que tem feito cada vez mais vítimas. Receosa, ela aceita trabalhar como informante, usando seus conhecimentos de química e da medicina tradicional Ojibwe. Mas a busca pela verdade se mostra mais perigosa e dolorosa do que ela imaginava, trazendo à tona segredos e abrindo feridas ainda não cicatrizadas.

Tales from our fishing trip to Sugar Island, the best way to prepare perch and an unforgettable boat tour of Pictured Rocks.

Author Michael Carrier talks with the U.P. Notable Books Book Club about his award winning book Murder on Sugar Island. MICHAEL CARRIER has published fourteen books of fiction, all centered on his main character, Jack Handler, a retired Chicago homicide detective. His books have been featured throughout the Midwest, mainly centering in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Michael Carrier never had a doubt that he would become a writer of fiction. When, as a journalism student in college, his professor asked him what he would like to do with his life, he told him that when he turned fifty years of age he would begin writing fiction. The professor was not pleased that Michael wanted to delay his career, and so challenged the rationale. Michael simply told him that he would not start writing novels until he had accumulated an appropriate inventory of life experiences. However, his professor, who happened to be the editor of a national weekly magazine, gave Michael a job writing for him. At various times in his life, Michael has driven truck throughout the US, hustled pool and gambled poker from Texas to Montana, traveled the country hitchhiking, spent five years in New York's East Greenwich Village, delivered diamonds for a New York wholesaler (he disguised himself as a down-and-outer), tended bar at a New York nightclub, climbed dozens of water towers throughout the US, panned gold, skydived, and worked for over nearly three decades in private security.

Firekeeper's Daughter is her debut novel.In this riveting novel, a biracial, unenrolled tribal member and the product of a scandal, Daunis Fontaine, has never quite fit in—both in her hometown and on the nearby Ojibwe reservation. When her family is struck by tragedy, Daunis puts her dreams on hold to care for her fragile mother. The only bright spot is meeting Jamie, the charming new recruit on her brother's hockey team.After Daunis witnesses a shocking murder that thrusts her into a criminal investigation, she agrees to go undercover. But the deceptions—and deaths—keep piling up and soon the threat strikes too close to home.

Have you ever found yourself thinking it's "too late" to start a new career path or passion project? (Guilty.) If you can relate, you NEED to listen to this episode with Angeline Boulley, author of the runaway bestselling novel Firekeeper's Daughter. Angeline had the idea for her book at 18, and then, as it does, life happened. She started a career and raised three kids, all the while the story was taking shape in the back of her head. At 44, she finally decided it was time to sit down and get the story down on the screen, and she spent the next ten-plus years honing her craft and shaping her story. In March 2021 - when Angeline was 55 - the book was published and has been on the New York Times bestseller list ever since, has received incredible critical acclaim and was recently optioned by Barack and Michelle Obama's production company Higher Ground to be turned into a Netflix series. ) This interview with Angeline is a powerful reminder that it's never too late to jump in, or jump BACK in, no matter how long your passion has been put on pause.

Hello! It’s Drew & Natalie Dee, who you know from Married To The Sea, The Worst Things For Sale, and other online projects. We’re working with Substack to create Garbage Brain University, a brand-new weekly newsletter and podcast where we’re collecting and sharing weird facts and stories. Some of our episodes will be for paid subscribers only, and some will be for everyone to listen to for free.You’ll be able to listen to Garbage Brain University on your favorite podcast app soon, but since this is your sneak preview from being an OG reader, we don’t have syndication set up quite yet. The first episode is attached here, and you’ll be able to re-listen or download it, along with our future eps, at garbagebrainuniversity.com.Our first installment explores the weirdest parts of Ohio, the heart-shaped state where 11,700,000 people reside today.We talked about Ohio’s weird flag on Episode 1 of Garbage Brain University, but in case you haven’t listened yet, here it is. It’s the only non-rectangular state flag, and as we discovered, this shape is called a “burgee.” Ohio didn’t have a state flag for almost a hundred years after it became a state, finally adopting the design above when the Cleveland architect John Eisenmann created it for a World’s Fair in 1901, leading state leaders to declare “Fuck it, that’s our state flag now.”Until recently, the worst President in American history was Ohioan Warren G. Harding. You’ll have to listen to the ‘cast to hear exactly why, but Natalie shares some knowledge of his misdeeds she picked up from living in his hometown of Marion, Ohio. One of the facts we didn’t touch on is that he bought the failing Marion Star, built up its bottom line by refusing to pay its employees, and turned it into a successful paper by manipulating and conning everyone he could. If this (or naming his dong Jerry and talking at length about Jerry in letters to his mistress) intrigues you, the book “Dead Last: The Public Memory Of Warren G. Harding’s Scandalous Legacy” might be up your alley. This is the Merchant Ball, which mysteriously rotates on its stone base over time. What causes it? Nobody knows. But we’ve been to this cemetery a few times, and the damn spot is always in a different place. It’s probably ghosts, because that’s the coolest explanation. Atlas Obscura suggests it moves through “imperceptable vibration.” But what causes the vibration? Probably ghosts.Did you know there are 14 to 18 islands in Ohio, depending on how you define “island”? We talked this week on Garbage Brain University about how harrowing it can be to cross Lake Erie, the body of water that separates Ohio from Canada, just to get to one of them. There’s also Rattlesnake Island, Starve Island, Mouse Island, Sugar Island, and a dozen more. We also talked about the Ohio glaciers, Gummo, local climate-change deniers, “butter lung” (a real medical condition,) the super-tornado, and other local facts and lore.
