À propos de cet audio
Five hundred years of colonization have taken an incalculable toll on the Indigenous peoples of the Americas: substance-use disorders and shockingly high rates of depression, diabetes, and other chronic health conditions brought on by genocide and colonial control. With passionate logic and chillingly clear prose, author and educator Suzanne Methot uses history, human development, and her own and others’ stories to trace the roots of Indigenous cultural dislocation and community breakdown in an original and provocative examination of the long-term effects of colonization. But all is not lost. Methot also shows how we can come back from this with Indigenous ways of knowing lighting the way.
Bespeak Audio Editions brings Canadian voices to the world with audiobook editions of some of the country’s greatest works of literature, performed by Canadian actors.
©2019 Suzanne Methot (P)2019 ECW PressCe que les critiques en disent
“Powerful . . . A deeply empathetic and inspiring work with insights of value to anyone struggling to overcome personal or communal trauma.” (Library Journal)
“Legacy is a book that is sure to be found on classroom syllabuses in years to come. It offers Indigenous readers testimony and some tools, and provides non-Indigenous readers depth of scope for understanding the relationships that exist between Indigenous peoples, their nations, and Canada.” (Quill & Quire)
“An important addition to the Indigenous library shelf.” (Booklist)

Psychologizing can get awkward
I found some parts of the story awkward especially when it was about Suzanne herself. When she analyzed situations involving coworkers or others in general, I kept wanting to discount her bias. I found it difficult to appreciate what was fact from what was interpretation. I did appreciate her attempts at psychopathology but I wasn't sure I trusted her interpretations and reasoning because I didn't see anything besides personal experience to verify her authority with psychology. I love self-analysis too but I'm afraid I have a fool for an analyst.

Important and timely
Listening to this book as a Canadian in 2020 is an experience I will encourage everyone I know to undergo. I have taken courses on the policies that loom over Indigenous peoples, and definitely have suffered from the phenomenon known as "white guilt". I was aware of some of the injustices suffered by these communities and individuals, but this book opened my eyes to just how deep those traumas go. I can now move forward, I feel, in society and be a better ally and participant in true reconciliation between Indigenous peoples and non Indigenous society.
Ms. Methot writes (and reads!) with passion, intelligence, wisdom, and compassion. Extremely highly recommended!
