Books like Dancing on our turtle's back by Leanne Simpson

In a world where global warming has erased dreaming, a group of Indigenous teens discover their bone marrow—and the dreams it contains—hold the key to salvation, while hunters pursue them to harvest that cure.

Set after a global collapse, the story follows an Anishinaabe reserve where winter and dwindling supplies force the community to confront outsiders, internal strife, and the need to reclaim traditional ways.

Saul, a young Ojibwa boy, is separated from his family, sent to a brutal off‑reservation boarding school, and finds only hockey as a path to redemption amid racism and trauma.

Wab Kinew’s memoir chronicles his journey of reconnecting with his Anishinaabe father, shedding a self‑destructive past and embracing music, martial arts, and Indigenous activism.

This study examines the traditional Cree and Ojibway world view, develops an appreciation of native philosophy and indicates ways in which native values can be incorporated into court and criminal law processes and other aspects of 'mainstream' culture in Canada.

"Across North America, Indigenous acts of resistance have in recent years opposed the removal of federal protections for forests and waterways in Indigenous lands, halted the expansion of tar sands extraction and the pipeline construction at Standing Rock, and demanded justice for murdered and missing Indigenous women. In As We Have Always Done, Leanne Betasamosake Simpson locates Indigenous political resurgence as a practice rooted in uniquely Indigenous theorizing, writing, organizing, and thinking. Indigenous resistance is a radical rejection of contemporary colonialism focused around refusing the dispossession of Indigenous bodies and land. Simpson makes clear that the resistance's goal can no longer be cultural resurgence as a mechanism for inclusion in a multicultural mosaic. Instead, she calls for unapologetic, place-based Indigenous alternatives to the destructive logics of the settler colonial state, including heteropatriarchy, white supremacy, and capitalist exploitation."--Dust jacket.
