Anishinaabe Songs for a New Millenium
Poetry Book, photos by Cheryl Welsh Belleville - Fall, 2024
Poem-songs summon the voices of Anishinaabe ancestors and sing to future generations
Marcie R. Rendon summons her ancestors’ songs, and her poem-songs evoke the world still unfolding around us, reflecting our place in time for future generations. Bringing memory to life, the senses to attention, she breaks the boundaries that time would impose, carrying the Anishinaabe way of life forward in the world.
This collection undoubtedly sings through and for generations to come! These powerful poems ask us to trust the wind to catch and carry our songs and prayers. Through each page, Marcie R. Rendon guides us to radically dream a future of strength and reminds us that ‘Win or lose, there’s dancing to be done.’ — Tanaya Winder, Author of Words Like Love
