Song of Rita Joe: Autobiography of a Mi'kmaq Poet by Rita Joe

5.0

What a story this woman had to tell. In spite of all of her hardships she maintains a positive attitude. "Some people would say that this world was bad," speaking about her experience in Indian Residential Schools. "I now people who came from this world and have gone on to productive lives, and I know some who have not, their scars too deep. My message is gentle: If one wishes to be healed, one must dwell on the positive." Very inspiring autobiography of an inspiring First Nations woman.
