We visit our literatures for healing. Today is a day of remembrance and reflection to honour missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls+ and speak out against racialized, sexualized and gender-based violences. We encourage you to sit with these stories as an invitation to learn more about the 231 Calls to Justice.

Members of our team were out in Winnipeg as part of our relationship building and knowledge mobilization phase of our larger study on envisioning Indigenous Cultural Safety and Ethical Encounters with Indigenous Literatures. We have so much to learn about the amazing work that is happening in Winnipeg and we are currently dreaming of ways we can continue building constellations of change. A satellite site for the Indigenous Literatures Lab at the University of Manitoba is one possibility. More to come!

In “Sacred Territories and Dream Worlds: Encountering the Literary Imaginations of Black and Indigenous Feminist Writers,” Jennifer Brant and Kayla Webber trace their journeys toward “re-imagining collective survivance” by thinking alongside S. R. Toliver and Black and Indigenous feminist writing traditions.
Drawing on a theoretical framework that weaves together livingness (Diaz; McKittrick), matriarchal worlding (J. Brant), survivance (Vizenor), felt theory (Million), and analytics of the flesh (King), the authors outline a decolonial and anti-colonial praxis where aesthetics, poetry, memoir, and kitchen table talks are woven into a conversational embodiment of slowness as method (Quashie, 2022).
The analysis centres the post-apocalyptic writing of Lee Maracle (Ravensong, Daughters Are Forever) and Octavia Butler (Wild Seed, Kindred). Through slow, close, and aesthetic readings of the texts, Brant and Webber highlight the texts’ abolitionist visions of radical futures and their pedagogical significance as expressions of matriarchal worlding.
Taken together, slow method and close, aesthetic engagement with Black and Indigenous feminist literatures offer pathways for relational encounters that invite worldmaking oriented toward Black and Indigenous futurities and re‑imagine collective survivance as a curricular possibility grounded in anti‑colonial praxis.

With this service, you can download content and enjoy it offline whenever you like. If you find something interesting on Instagram that you’d like to check out later or want to view stories while staying anonymous, our Viewer is perfect for you. Anonstories offers an excellent solution for keeping your identity hidden. Instagram first launched the Stories feature in August 2023, which was quickly adopted by other platforms due to its engaging, time-sensitive format. Stories let users share quick updates, whether photos, videos, or selfies, enhanced with text, emojis, or filters, and are visible for only 24 hours. This limited time frame creates high engagement compared to regular posts. In today’s world, Stories are one of the most popular ways to connect and communicate on social media. However, when you view a Story, the creator can see your name in their viewer list, which may be a privacy concern. What if you wish to browse Stories without being noticed? Here’s where Anonstories becomes useful. It allows you to watch public Instagram content without revealing your identity. Simply enter the username of the profile you’re curious about, and the tool will display their latest Stories.

Limitations: - This tool works only with public accounts; private accounts remain inaccessible. Benefits: - Privacy-Friendly: Watch any Instagram content without being noticed. - Simple and Easy: No app installation or registration required. - Exclusive Tools: Download and manage content in ways Instagram doesn’t offer.
