Reports on the results of the Generation Indigenous (Gen-I) Online Roundtable Survey of Native American youth between the ages 18-24. Respondents were asked about their three top priorities, what they are doing to tackle their challenges, and some of the ways they are partnering with their community to build resilience.
Discusses how Lee Maracle leads her readers to see the realities of a world that is rigid and unequally divided by using "we", "I" and "you" to flip the idea of "others".
