Histoire
The Inconvenient Indian is at once a “history” and the complete subversion of a history - in short, a critical and personal meditation that the remarkable Thomas King has conducted over the past 50 years about what it means to be “Indian” in North America. Rich with dark and light, pain and magic, this book distills the insights gleaned from that meditation, weaving the curiously circular tale of the relationship between non-Natives and Natives in the centuries since the two first encountered each other.

Fred Sasakamoose, torn from his home at the age of seven, endured the horrors of residential school for a decade before becoming one of 120 players in the most elite hockey league in the world. He has been heralded as the first Indigenous player with Treaty status in the NHL. After twelve games, he returned home. When people tell Sasakamoose's story, this is usually where they end it. Sasakamoose's groundbreaking memoir sheds piercing light on Canadian history and Indigenous politics, and follows this man's journey to reclaim pride in a heritage that had been used against him.

Helen Knott, a highly accomplished Indigenous woman, seems to have it all. But in her memoir, she offers a different perspective.

Robyn Maynard provides listeners with the first comprehensive account of nearly 400 years of state-sanctioned surveillance, criminalization, and punishment of Black lives in Canada.

Description
A moving father-son reconciliation told by a charismatic First Nations broadcaster, musician, and activist.
When his father was given a diagnosis of terminal cancer, Winnipeg broadcaster and musician Wab Kinew decided to spend a year reconnecting with the accomplished but distant aboriginal man who'd raised him. The Reason You Walk spans the year 2012, chronicling painful moments in the past and celebrating renewed hopes and dreams for the future. As Kinew revisits his own childhood in Winnipeg and on a reserve in Northern Ontario, he learns more about his father's traumatic childhood at residential school.
An intriguing doubleness marks The Reason You Walk, a reference to an Anishinaabe ceremonial song. Born to an Anishinaabe father and a non-native mother, he has a foot in both cultures. He is a Sundancer, an academic, a former rapper, a hereditary chief, and an urban activist. His father, Tobasonakwut, was both a beloved traditional chief and a respected elected leader who engaged directly with Ottawa. Internally divided, his father embraced both traditional native religion and Catholicism, the religion that was inculcated into him at the residential school where he was physically and sexually abused.
In a grand gesture of reconciliation, Kinew's father invited the Roman Catholic bishop of Winnipeg to a Sundance ceremony in which he adopted him as his brother. Kinew writes affectingly of his own struggles in his 20s to find the right path, eventually giving up a self-destructive lifestyle to passionately pursue music and martial arts. From his unique vantage point, he offers an inside view of what it means to be an educated aboriginal living in a country that is just beginning to wake up to its aboriginal history and living presence.
Invoking hope, healing and forgiveness, The Reason You Walk is a poignant story of a towering but damaged father and his son as they embark on a journey to repair their family bond. By turns lighthearted and solemn, Kinew gives us an inspiring vision for family and cross-cultural reconciliation, and a wider conversation about the future of aboriginal peoples.

Seeing a New Side of Colonialism
Read this book twice, and skimmed through it again last month - Absolutely loved it! Each time I read it, I see something new in Kinew's memoir that enlightens and surprises me.
Wab Kinew paints an incredible story of his and his father's life experiences. As a colonial Canadian, this memoir provided me rare insight into First Nations culture, knowledge, and perspectives. The abhorrence of residential school, intergenerational trauma, and continuing racism in mainstream Canadian society are present in this story. However, Kinew masterfully presents these terrible moments as apart of a larger, uplifting storyline of healing and reconciliation.

An honest and heartfelt memoir
I loved his story. His honesty, humility, and authenticity. His story of how he has changed and grown was so moving. An exceptional writer and storyteller. I hope to see him as prime minister of Canada one day.

Beautiful story told by the author
What a beautiful story of love, family and learning about the pain of residential schools and how brave the victims were. It’s also about family, tradition, healing and courage. It’s lovely hearing the language spoken and sung by the author as well. Highly recommend this book to every Canadian. I hope we all can learn about honouring our loved ones from this book.

Great read for context.
This is a great read. And I note two things.
Wab Kinew is now the Premier of Manitoba - 6 years after this was written. I'd love to sit a read the next book yet to be written.
Also - I am a now former United minister. I am ashamed at how much has NOT happened since the writing of the book. As such I don't share the eloquent optimism with which it ends.
