Join Restoring Ancestral Winds for their monthly, Indigenous focused book club. They will be highlighting Indigenous stories and Indigenous authors. This event is free and open to the public.

“We will be discussing sensitive topics like domestic violence and sexual assault.

In our upcoming book club meeting, we will be discussing the first part of “There, There” by Tommy Orange, a poignant exploration of contemporary Native American identity. This novel weaves together twelve interconnected stories that highlight themes of violence, recovery, and the complex relationship between environment and identity. Each character navigates their personal and collective histories, shedding light on the beauty and pain inherent in their experiences. As we discuss these narratives, we’ll reflect on how they resonate with the broader context of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, considering the psychological impact of historical trauma and the resilience found in these diverse voices. Join us for a rich conversation about the layers of meaning in Orange’s work and its relevance to understanding identity, community, and healing.”
