Against the backdrop of ongoing anti-Blackness and Indigenous erasure that has sought to undermine this rich culture, Louisiana Creoles have found transformative ways to uphold solidarity, kinship, and continuity, retaking Louisiana Creole agency as a post-contact Afro-Indigenous culture. Engaging themes as varied as foodways, queer identity, health, historical trauma, language revitalization, and diaspora, \u003ci\u003eLouisiana Creole Peoplehood\u003c\/i\u003e explores vital ways a specific Afro-Indigenous community asserts agency while promoting cultural sustainability, communal dialogue, and community reciprocity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith interviews, essays, and autobiographic contributions from community members and scholars, \u003ci\u003eLouisiana Creole Peoplehood\u003c\/i\u003e tracks the sacred interweaving of land and identity alongside the legacies and genealogies of Creole resistance to bring into focus the Afro-Indigenous people written out of settler governmental policy. In doing so, this collection intervenes against the erasure of Creole Indigeneity to foreground Black\/Indian cultural sustainability, agency, and self-determination.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cb\u003eRain Prud'homme-Cranford\u003c\/b\u003e is assistant professor of English and international Indigenous studies at the University of Calgary. \u003cb\u003eDarryl Barthé\u003c\/b\u003e is the visiting professor of History at Dartmouth College. \u003cb\u003eAndrew Jolivétte\u003c\/b\u003e is professor of ethnic studies at the University of California, San Diego.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 304\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 x 8.9 x 5.9 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 22, 2022\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50407839203565,"sku":"9780295749495","price":51.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.webster.direct\/products\/louisiana-creole-peoplehood-afro-indigeneity-and-community-paperback","provider":"Webster.Direct","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
