This Place: 150 Years Retold by various authors, 287 pages.
This comic anthology asks a large collection of Indigenous artists to contribute stories of the past, present, and future of Indigenous peoples in Canada. Although a few comics are forays into magical realism or science fiction, I would say most feel more like simple retellings of historical incidents that feel designed to be shared online to spread awareness to people with a casual interest. That being said, some also felt like they assumed more knowledge of general Canadian history than I have. This is a really cool concept, but I'm afraid there aren't many stand-out stories for me.
