Reading this archive of texts next to lived struggles over spatial justice, Rymhs argues that roads are spaces of complex signification. For many Indigenous communities, the road has not often been so open. Recent Indigenous writing and visual art explores this tension between mobility and confinement. Drawing primarily on the work of Marie Clements, Tomson Highway, Marilyn Dumont, Leanne Simpson, Richard Van Camp, Kent Monkman, and Louise Erdrich, this volume examines histories of uprooting and violence?associated with roads. Along with exploring these fraught histories of mobility, this book emphasizes various ways in which Indigenous communities have transformed roads into sites of political resistance and social memory. 410 0$aRoutledge studies in world literatures and the environment. 606 $aCanadian literature$xIndian authors$xHistory and criticism 606 $aCanadian literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aRoads in literature 606 $aLiterature and society$zCanada$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aIndian art$zCanada$y20th century 615 0$aCanadian literature$xIndian authors$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aCanadian literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aRoads in literature. 615 0$aLiterature and society$xHistory 615 0$aIndian art 676 $a810.9897071 700 $aRymhs$b Deena$01657773 801 0$bFlBoTFG 801 1$bFlBoTFG 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826457303321 996 $aRoads, Mobility, and Violence in Indigenous Literature and Art from North America$94011375 997 $aUNINA
