Requests:  0 Summary:  "In the early 1800s, the Mvskoke people were forcibly removed from their original lands east of the Mississippi to Indian Territory, which is now part of Oklahoma. Two hundred years later, Joy Harjo returns to her family's lands and opens a dialogue with history ... Harjo finds blessings in the abundance of her homeland and confronts the site where her people, and other indigenous families, essentially disappeared. From her memory of her mother's death, to her beginnings in the Native rights movement, to the fresh road with her beloved, Harjo's personal life intertwines with tribal histories to create a space for renewed beginnings. Her poems sing of beauty and survival, illuminating a spirituality that connects her to her ancestors and thrums with the quiet anger of living in the ruins of injustice." --   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Copy Status   Aina Haina Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.54 Ha   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 811.54 Ha   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.54 Harjo pbk Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kahuku P/S Library Adult Nonfiction 811.54 Ha   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kaimuki Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.54 Ha   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kalihi-Palama Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.54 Ha   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kapolei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.54 Ha   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Kihei Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.54 Ha   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.54 Ha   Checked In Add Copy to MyList Manoa Public Library Adult Nonfiction 811.54 Ha   Checked In Add Copy to MyList More Results: 1 2 Next
