"#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."

🌍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 👇
