Paria sans portefeuille"#JulianBraveNoisecat’s debut memoir, #WeSurvivedTheNight [...] begins with an act of literary resistance in the face of colonial erasure. NoiseCat’s father was born and then abandoned as an infant at St Joseph’s Mission, an Indian boarding school in Canada now known to be the site of generations of systemic state violence against #Indigenous children and their families."

Uluru, Discovering the Sacred Rock Solid Centre of Australia’s Outback ~ Roamancing Travel Magazine
With most people flocking to Australia's coastline to basks on beautiful beaches and enjoy a modern urban lifestyle, it may seem that there’s ‘bugger all’ there in Australia's Outback. We'd encourage you to take another look, however, as not only is the Outback home to an amazing array of creatures, some 1,500 communities including the A?angu people, but also to Uluru, a giant rock of sacred reverence, representing the heart of Australia's rock solid centre. Read on to share in Liz's extraordinary adventure of a lifetime responding to Uluru's sacred call.
Open Book Publishers🌍As we wrap up #OpenAccessWeek 2023, we reflect on the transformative power of #openaccess.
Lee Haring's words remind us that openness transcends borders, preserving #oraltraditions and fostering global connections.
'Open access is the only ethical, rational way to publish the oral literatures of people who don't have much use for writing. People in the countries I write about are plentifully equipped with mobile phones. With them they see that the outside world is paying attention to their most treasured traditions. Reading a familiar folktale in translation may even encourage them to learn English. The rest of the world discovers the narrative skills and sociopolitical comments of local narrators they can meet only online.'
Lee Haring's latest #OA book, '#Folktales of #Mayotte, an African Island' is available to read & download for free 👇
Folktales of Mayotte, an African Island
The book uncovers the versatility and literary skills of oral narrators in a small African island. Relying on the researches of three French ethnographers who interviewed storytellers in the 1970s-80s, Lee Haring shows a once-colonised people using verbal art to preserve ancient values in the postcolonial world, when the island of Mayotte was transforming itself from a neglected colony to an overseas department of France.
Nicole Roed@knittingknots2 Thanks for sharing. It’s very interesting #genetic #research. ‘Oral traditions and archaeological evidence suggest that the descendants of these Asian-African unions spoke an African language, and that African women retained significant economic and social power’. #women #oraltraditions #archaeology
