Histoire
The Inconvenient Indian is at once a “history” and the complete subversion of a history - in short, a critical and personal meditation that the remarkable Thomas King has conducted over the past 50 years about what it means to be “Indian” in North America. Rich with dark and light, pain and magic, this book distills the insights gleaned from that meditation, weaving the curiously circular tale of the relationship between non-Natives and Natives in the centuries since the two first encountered each other.

Fred Sasakamoose, torn from his home at the age of seven, endured the horrors of residential school for a decade before becoming one of 120 players in the most elite hockey league in the world. He has been heralded as the first Indigenous player with Treaty status in the NHL. After twelve games, he returned home. When people tell Sasakamoose's story, this is usually where they end it.

Histoire
There is one question Canadians have asked Jody Wilson-Raybould more than any other: What can I do to help advance reconciliation? This has been true from her time as a leader of British Columbia’s First Nations, as a Member of Parliament, as Minister of Justice and Attorney General, within business communities, and when having conversations with people. Whether speaking as individuals, communities, organizations, or governments, people want to take concrete and tangible action that will make real change. They just need to know how to get started, or to take the next step.

Description
A moving father-son reconciliation told by a charismatic First Nations broadcaster, musician, and activist.
When his father was given a diagnosis of terminal cancer, Winnipeg broadcaster and musician Wab Kinew decided to spend a year reconnecting with the accomplished but distant aboriginal man who'd raised him. The Reason You Walk spans the year 2012, chronicling painful moments in the past and celebrating renewed hopes and dreams for the future. As Kinew revisits his own childhood in Winnipeg and on a reserve in Northern Ontario, he learns more about his father's traumatic childhood at residential school.
An intriguing doubleness marks The Reason You Walk, a reference to an Anishinaabe ceremonial song. Born to an Anishinaabe father and a non-native mother, he has a foot in both cultures. He is a Sundancer, an academic, a former rapper, a hereditary chief, and an urban activist. His father, Tobasonakwut, was both a beloved traditional chief and a respected elected leader who engaged directly with Ottawa. Internally divided, his father embraced both traditional native religion and Catholicism, the religion that was inculcated into him at the residential school where he was physically and sexually abused.
In a grand gesture of reconciliation, Kinew's father invited the Roman Catholic bishop of Winnipeg to a Sundance ceremony in which he adopted him as his brother. Kinew writes affectingly of his own struggles in his 20s to find the right path, eventually giving up a self-destructive lifestyle to passionately pursue music and martial arts. From his unique vantage point, he offers an inside view of what it means to be an educated aboriginal living in a country that is just beginning to wake up to its aboriginal history and living presence.
Invoking hope, healing and forgiveness, The Reason You Walk is a poignant story of a towering but damaged father and his son as they embark on a journey to repair their family bond. By turns lighthearted and solemn, Kinew gives us an inspiring vision for family and cross-cultural reconciliation, and a wider conversation about the future of aboriginal peoples.

must read for everyone
Wab Kinew narrates this incredible, insightful book about his reason for walking, inviting us to do the same. It is full of wisdom and teachings that he shares openly to us all. I am a non-native Sundancer and first generation settler of european parents and have children whose father is Dene. This book has helped in understanding their father who was put in residential school in Alberta and has suffered greatly with the trauma from those experiences and the racism and oppression that has continued throughout his life.
With much gratitude - Pilamyayelo

Please listen to this book
Thank you, Wab Kinew, for your honesty and your powerful insights. Your words will stay with me for a long time. The quest for self-knowledge is never-ending, and we all need examples we can look up to as we walk that path. Yours is one that I think many readers and listeners can learn from. Meegwetch.

An invitation to walk the path of reconciliation
Engaging, enlightening, uplifting! I was moved to tears more than once, as Wab recounted his experiences, reminded of my privilege, and our shared humanity!

An honest and heartfelt memoir
I loved his story. His honesty, humility, and authenticity. His story of how he has changed and grown was so moving. An exceptional writer and storyteller. I hope to see him as prime minister of Canada one day.

Beautiful story told by the author
What a beautiful story of love, family and learning about the pain of residential schools and how brave the victims were. It’s also about family, tradition, healing and courage. It’s lovely hearing the language spoken and sung by the author as well. Highly recommend this book to every Canadian. I hope we all can learn about honouring our loved ones from this book.

Powerful Story
A really beautiful walk through the evolution of both Wab and his father. I feel like I learned a lot about Canada and the Anishnaabe people as well as the bit of Ontario I lived in for almost a decade, all while being carried in the personal, yet universal stories of family.
