The representation of non-Western cultures in opera has long been a focus of critical inquiry. Within this field, the diverse relationships between opera and First Nations and Indigenous cultures, however, have received far less attention. Opera Indigene takes this subject as its focus, addressing the changing historical depictions of Indigenous cultures in opera and the more contemporary practices of Indigenous and First Nations artists. The use of 're/presenting' in the title signals an important distinction between how representations of Indigenous identity have been constructed in operatic history and how Indigenous artists have more recently utilized opera as an interface to present and develop their cultural practices.This volume explores how operas on Indigenous subjects reflect the evolving relationships between Indigenous peoples, the colonizing forces of imperial power, and forms of internal colonization in developing nation-states. Drawing upon postcolonial theory, ethnomusicology, cultural geography and critical discourses on nationalism and multiculturalism, the collection brings together experts on opera and music in Canada, the Americas and Australia in a stimulating comparative study of operatic re/presentation.

In 2008, the Canadian government established a Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC) to review the history of the residential school system, a brutal colonial project that killed and injured many Indigenous children and left a legacy of trauma and pain. In Fragments of Truth Naomi Angel analyzes the visual culture of reconciliation and memory in relation to this complex and painful history. In her analyses of archival photographs from the residential school system, representations of the schools in popular media and literature, and testimonies from TRC proceedings, Angel traces how the TRC served as a mechanism through which memory, trauma, and visuality became apparent. She shows how many Indigenous communities were able to use the TRC process as a way to claim agency over their memories of the schools. Bringing to light the ongoing costs of transforming settler states into modern nations, Angel demonstrates how the TRC offers a unique optic through which to survey the long history of colonial oppression of Canada’s Indigenous populations.

WInner of the Best First Book from the Native American and Indigenous Studies AssociationWinner of the Labriola Center American Indian National Book AwardWinner of the Ann Saddlemyer Award from the Canadian Association for Theatre ResearchReimagining how we understand and write about the Indigenous listening experienceHungry Listening is the first book to consider listening from both Indigenous and settler colonial perspectives. A critical response to what has been called the “whiteness of sound studies,” Dylan Robinson evaluates how decolonial practices of listening emerge from increasing awareness of our listening positionality. This, he argues, involves identifying habits of settler colonial perception and contending with settler colonialism’s “tin ear” that renders silent the epistemic foundations of Indigenous song as history, law, and medicine. With case studies on Indigenous participation in classical music, musicals, and popular music, Hungry Listening examines structures of inclusion that reinforce Western musical values. Alongside this inquiry on the unmarked terms of inclusion in performing arts organizations and compositional practice, Hungry Listening offers examples of “doing sovereignty” in Indigenous performance art, museum exhibition, and gatherings that support an Indigenous listening resurgence.Throughout the book, Robinson shows how decolonial and resurgent forms of listening might be affirmed by writing otherwise about musical experience. Through event scores, dialogic improvisation, and forms of poetic response and refusal, he demands a reorientation toward the act of reading as a way of listening. Indigenous relationships to the life of song are here sustained in writing that finds resonance in the intersubjective experience between listener, sound, and space.

Coming from a life of brokenness and abuse, Dylan came to a crossroads in his life and had to choose between going down the path set before him or to accept the hope and love of Jesus Christ. Once he experienced Jesus for the first time, he knew it was what he had always been looking for. Life didn't get easier after accepting Christ, but the purpose and fulfillment that came with living in Christ was a life he never thought was possible. This book is about how God took a broken kid, born on the wrong side of the tracks, and redeemed him in a way he never thought possible. Dylan now travels all over the country preaching about the Good News that can save their lives as well and also inspire others in their own faith. Dylan chose and continues to choose to keep moving forward and to never go back to his old life, and he believes that God desires everyone to continue to grow in their faith rather than becoming stagnant. What will you choose?

Arts of Engagement focuses on the role that music, film, visual art, and Indigenous cultural practices play in and beyond Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission on Indian Residential Schools. Contributors here examine the impact of aesthetic and sensory experience in residential school history, at TRC national and community events, and in artwork and exhibitions not affiliated with the TRC. Using the framework of ""aesthetic action,"" the essays expand the frame of aesthetics to include visual, aural, and kinetic sensory experience, and question the ways in which key components of reconciliation such as apology and witnessing have social and political effects for residential school survivors, intergenerational survivors, and settler publics.This volume makes an important contribution to the discourse on reconciliation in Canada by examining how aesthetic and sensory interventions offer alternative forms of political action and healing. These forms of aesthetic action encompass both sensory appeals to empathize and invitations to join together in alliance and new relationships as well as refusals to follow the normative scripts of reconciliation. Such refusals are important in their assertion of new terms for conciliation, terms that resist the imperatives of reconciliation as a form of resolution.This collection charts new ground by detailing the aesthetic grammars of reconciliation and conciliation. The authors document the efficacies of the TRC for the various Indigenous and settler publics it has addressed, and consider the future aesthetic actions that must be taken in order to move beyond what many have identified as the TRC's political limitations.

In Against the Ropes: Developing grit in the spiritual fight, you will learn what it means to have grit with whatever life throws at you. As a boxer finds himself "against the ropes" in the ring, he knows he has a decision to make. Does he lay down and take it, or does he decide to get back up and keep fighting. The same is true for life, especially the Christian life. The enemy, or just life in general, will throw things at you, but it is what you do in response that truly matters. It is your choice to make, but there are some things you can have in your corner that makes getting up easier. Those are faith, family, and fight.This book dives into what "faith" in God truly looks like. You must have faith that God is who he says he is, that he loves and wants the best for you, that he can move and work in any situation, and that he still does miracles. Then you need "family," Whether this is biological or just a spiritual family, you need people in your corner helping you when you''re down, picking you back up, and holding you accountable in your spiritual walk. Finally, you need to have "fight." We live in a culture where the fight mentality is rare, but there is a real, spiritual battle going on all around us, and you can either sit on the sidelines or get in the fight.Every hard situation you face, you have a decision to make. Will you use this to allow the Lord to develop more "grit" in you, or will you use this as an excuse to give up or throw in the towel? Jesus doesn''t say "if" we have trials, but "when." That means difficult situations will come, but we have a unique opportunity to use those to be stronger in our faith, develop stronger bonds with people than we knew was possible, and develop a fight mentality we didn''t know we could have.
