Parley

Marc Johnson (Editor)
"Parley is a vibrant anthology gathering interviews with 26 knowledge keepers based in Vancouver, ranging from curators and artists to writers, all sharing involvement in First Nations rights, study, heritage preservation, and cultural revitalization. The discussion expands beyond the individuals, delving into related topics such as archiving, collection, and dissemination of First Nations languages and cultural artifacts. The book enhances the reading experience with 62 color illustrations, featuring glimpses into three museum reserves in Vancouver (The Museum of Anthropology, MOA, The Vancouver Maritime Museum, VMM, and The Museum of Vancouver, MOV). With contributions by Colin Browne, Jim Breukelman, Dana Claxton, Stan Douglas, Karren Duffek, Sharon Fortney, Haa Huups, Marc Johnson, Darius Jones, Uno Langmann, Nicola Levell, Parker McIntosh, Duncan Mcleod, Peter Morin, Bryan Mulvihill, Susan Rowley, Anthony Shelton, Heidi Swierenga, Kamala Todd, Mauray Toutloff, Ian Wallace, Connie Watts, Laura Wee Lay Laq, Jordan Wilson, Paul Wong, Cease Wyss, Michael Nicoll Yahgulanaas, Lawrence Paul Yuxweluptun. This diverse array of voices offers an insightful, comprehensive, yet humble understanding of First Nations' culture and history."-- Provided by publisher
