“…À la lecture de Theodore Roszak Neufeld (2016), mais surtout de Cardinal (1969), Campbell (1973), Maracle (1975), Adams (1975) Alternative francophone https://journals.library.ualberta.ca/af/index.php/af vante la vision environnementale des premier•ère•s habitant•e•s de l'Île de la tortue tandis qu'il insiste sur la « difference between the scientific and the magical visions of nature » (Roszak 245). Ainsi, le rapport à l'environnement chez les peuples autochtones relèverait d'une certaine naïveté, d'un état « naturel » les prédisposant à celui-ci, et non pas de savoirs et de pratiques millénaires bien définies.…”

À ce jour, on a surtout étudié la contre-culture d’un point de vue occidentalocentriste et colonialiste, et ce sans reconnaître l’appropriation culturelle qui la caractérise pourtant, qu’il s’agisse des nombreux emprunts superficiels aux spiritualités orientales (Roszak 1995 [1969]) ou encore de l’adoption artificielle de modes de vie autochtones, que l’on a qualifiée, à tort, de « retour à la nature » (Deloria 2013). La contre-culture, dans sa signification véritable de remise en question des structures oppressives de la vie (le Blanc 2014), est intrinsèquement liée aux prises de parole autochtones des années 1970 et 1980. Pour Emma LaRocque (Crie/Métisse), puisque les littératures autochtones, en tant que forme d’expression collective, n’étaient pas possibles avant les années 1970 (2010 : 19), les écritures autochtones seraient l’histoire d’une contestation stratégique (2010 : 24). Plus encore, la littérature contestataire serait le canon des littératures autochtones (LaRocque 2010 : 25). C’est la dévalorisation colonialiste des cultures autochtones qui a généré une réponse contre-culturelle, un contre-discours autochtone qui, porté par la colère et la polémique, invite à une révision de plusieurs sources de savoir eurocentrées (LaRocque 2010 : 70 et 108). Avec cette contribution, j’espère parvenir à déconstruire la contre-culture settler et à esquisser les contours de ce que sont les contre-cultures littéraires autochtones.

“…However, my historical argument does not simply affirm a continuity between these periods of struggle. Rather, the Red Power era, at least in its most radical practice and critical theoretical expressions, such as the Native Alliance for Red Power and the Native People's Caravan and the work of Howard Adams (1989; and Lee Maracle (1990;1997), was characterized by a socialist anticapitalism whose trademarks included a pronounced internationalism, pan-Indigeneity, and mass coalitional politics as well as an emphasis of the necessity of self-liberatory politics, which centred the direct experience and agency of the colonized. With the decline of the Red Power movement, or more accurately, its defeat, and the consolidation of the colonial politics of recognition, especially from the early 1990s to the present, I argue that the practical basis of these political principles was undermined.…”

even remotely. She has been everything to me long before all of this. Gi'zaagi'in. I would also like to acknowledge my daughter, Ellie, who brings joy to us every day and means the world to me, as well as Goose, who is on the way.I would like to express my gratitude to my parents, Tony and France, who never fail to ensure that all those around them are well and taken care of, and whose ethics are incomparable. To my sister, Doe, and her partner, Rae, who are stunning examples of what humanity should be, and their amazing children, Loey and Jasper, who have already developed in ways that embody the values we should all be striving for collectively. I also want to express my profound gratitude to Sug, who raised me for the second time, and who has taken life to a whole other level, teaching us all what matters and how to persevere. Your spirit lives in my heart. I would also be remiss if I didn't acknowledge my cousin Tom Borg, who has shared so much knowledge with me over the years and demonstrated what it means to be Anishinaabe and uphold our obligations to the land.To my supervisor, Dr. Julie Tomiak, who showed me such patience and care, who was so gentle with me and my process, teaching me to take my time and giving me the chance to develop myself according to my capacity and truth. Take your time, she insisted despite the pressure to finish, this is about what kind of scholar and person you want to become. What more could one ask for in a supervisor? To Dr. Justin Paulson, who showed such devotion and care and is also undoubtedly one of the central reason my work came together the way it did, consistently taking the time to meet with me and talk things through, insisting on bringing all of my interests together and helping to shape it into a coherent whole. Together they are exemplary, and I aspire to be like them in my own practice.I also want to acknowledge Peter Hodgins, who was a calming voice throughout the process and helped keep me on track; Kahente Horn-Miller, who showed great empathy and reassured me along the way; Jurek Elzanowski, who has been so kind and supportive; William Felepchuk for all his help over the years; Lindy Van Vliet, for being such a good friend; Ryan Nicholson, who welcomed me into his community and taught me a lot; Christine Bird for telling me I had to make a decision early on; Mary Anne Caibaiosai, who has shared so much knowledge with me, and Kirsten Lindquist, who has taught me a tremendous amount and has always shown me so much care and supported me since we connected a decade ago. Miigwech.I would also like to express my gratitude to my late Uncle Vid, who shared with us every day in his actions the teachings of the strawberry -Ode'imin.Lastly, I dedicate the entirety of this work and all its implications to Boy.
