This anthology establishes a new black prairie literary tradition and transforms inherited understandings of what prairie literature looks and sounds like. It collects varied and unique work by writers who were both conscious and unconscious of themselves as black writers or as prairie people. Their letters, recipes, oral literature, autobiographies, rap, and poetry provide vivid glimpses into the reality of their lived experiences and give meaning to them. Included are introductory notes for each writer in non-specialist language, as well as notes to assist readers in their engagement with the literature. This archives and its supporting text offer new scholarly and pedagogical possibilities by expanding the nation's and the region's archives. They enrich our understanding of black Canada by bringing to light the prairies' black histories, cultures, and presencesKarina Vernon, editorIncludes bibliographical references (pages 549-565) and indexCanadian literature / Black authorsCanadian literature / Prairie Provinces|PR9194.5.B55KXP1736786334978-1-77112-374-7HT02080507646611EER17762021020520210310EER1776rda https://ce.visuallibrary.net//domainresource/static/graphics/connectors/viewerLogo.gif http://193.30.112.129:83/F/?func=find-c&ccl_term=ICS%3DEER1776 https://ce.visuallibrary.net/id/1092450 https://ce.visuallibrary.net/i3f/v20/1092450/manifest https://ce.visuallibrary.net/proto_ftsearch/1092450
