This is a beautiful anthology highlighting the stories and perspectives of a diverse group of native women. The youngest contributors to the anthology are a group of middle school students, whose works close out the book with hope and joy. Each story in the anthology focuses on empowering native women by affirming their resilience both as individuals and as community members. A variety of emotions are explored within the anthology, but every one of them, anger, sorrow, helplessness, power, strength, and joy, connect to a wider narrative of the love native women have for themselves and each other, and how that love is transcendent. Highly recommended, but please mind the content warnings below.
