"Waking Ground connects the social and ecological challenges our communities face with the unresolved legacy of Canada's settlement and its ongoing impact on the lives of Indigenous people. Attuned to language, landscape, and legacy, Shalan Joudry's insightful and candid poems bring forward stories that speak to the resilience of Mi'kmaw culture and the collective work of healing and reconciliation that lies before us all."--Back cover
