Métis Rising: Living Our Present Through the Power of Our Past

Métis Rising presents a remarkable cross-section of perspectives to demonstrate that there is no single Métis experience – only a common sense of belonging and a commitment to justice. The contributors to this unique collection, most of whom are Métis themselves, offer accounts ranging from personal reflections on identity to tales of advocacy against poverty and poor housing, and for the recognition of Métis rights.

This extraordinary work exemplifies how contemporary Métis identity has been forged into a force to be reckoned with.
