Summary:
"No Country for Eight-Spot Butterflies is a collection of soulful ruminations about love, loss, struggle, resilience and power. Part memoir, part manifesto, the book is both a coming-of-age story and a call for justice -- for everyone but, in particular, for indigenous peoples -- his own and others."--
