A Mind Spread Out on the Ground by Alicia Elliott

challenging informative reflective tense slow-paced

4.75

This book is a challenging read but such an important one. Elliott is an incredibly talented writer who discusses the intersections of identity and trauma in compelling and thought-provoking ways. She also examines the extended effects of colonization on all aspects of life as an Indigenous person. This book gave me a lot to reflect on in my own life, behaviours, and beliefs.

This book needs to be read by all settlers in Canada.
