Why Indigenous Literatures Matter Free Audiobook Download by Daniel Heath Justice


Although the book is written in a very accessible and engaging way, it dares to ask difficult questions about the way that indigenous peoples have traditionally been treated, their relationship with their land, and the ways that they are still viewed today.

The world's largest and most influential literatures have been the English language, Chinese and the works of Shakespeare. These literatures have shaped who we are and what we believe. They have affected our culture and politics. So it is a natural progression that all societies should seek to recognize diverse voices.

Indigenous literatures are a type of literature that is composed in many different Indigenous languages. These are texts created by Indigenous peoples in their own cultures, often critical of past and present colonization. There are also some cases in which indigenous literatures can be considered "world literatures," since they may be translated into languages other than the original Indigenous one.

The experience of an indigenous writer is often told through their experiences as a child, their coming of age and then the development of their creativity. The stories they tell are always connected to where they come from. This is what makes these literature so important because they reflect on the cultures, histories and on the wisdom that has been passed down for generations.

Native American and Indigenous literatures have been underrepresented for a long time, even in literature courses. As a result, most people are unaware of how significant Native American and Indigenous literatures are in literary history. But as a reader or writer myself, I am intimately familiar with the sounds, smells and sights of these texts. I think it's important to preserve our literature whether we're teaching about it or learning from it.
