University of Minnesota’s own Brenda Child’s newest work Holding Our World Together: Ojibwe Women and the Survival of Community is the latest addition to the Penguin Library of American Indian History. Her book is described as “a powerful tribute to the many courageous women who sustained Native communities through the darkest challenges of the last three centuries.” A member of the Red Lake Ojibwe Nation and associate professor at the U of M with a specialty in American Indian history, Child has a strong grasp of the topic, to say the least. Tonight’s discussion at the U of M’s bookstore will be thought provoking indeed.
Coverage of issues and events that affect Central Corridor neighborhoods and communities is funded in part by a grant from Central Corridor Collaborative.
