Urban Indigenous Youth Reframing Two-Spirit<\/em> by Marie Laing<\/h3>\n

This book offers insights from young trans, queer, and two-spirit Indigenous people in Toronto who examine the breadth and depth of meanings that two-spirit holds. Tracing the refusals and desires of these youth and their communities, Urban Indigenous Youth Reframing Two-Spirit<\/em> expands critical conversations on queerness, Indigeneity, and community and simultaneously troubles the idea that articulating a definition of two-spirit is a worthwhile undertaking.<\/p>\n

Beyond the expansion of these conversations, this book also seeks to empower community members, educators, and young people \u2014 both Indigenous and non-Indigenous \u2014 to better support the self-determination of trans, queer, and two-spirit Indigenous youth. By including a research zine and community discussion guidelines, Laing demonstrates the possibility of powerful change that comes from Indigenous people creating spaces to share knowledge with one another.
