You’ll likely recognize Eternity Martis’s They Said This Would Be Fun: the bright cover of this powerful memoir was featured on must-read roundups for months prior to publication and is a frequent feature on bestseller lists since its release. Martis, an award-winning reporter, shares the racism she encountered as a Black student on a predominantly white campus, described as a “beautifully-written account of what it’s like to finally find your people.” Finding belonging is a common theme in Governor General’s Literary Award Winner, David A. Robertson’s, books. In his latest, a memoir, Black Water: Family, Legacy, and Blood Memory, Robertson shares the powerful story of connecting with his Indigenous roots on a trip with his Cree father to the family’s trapline. Author Rachel Giese writes: “At once intimate and expansive, this is a story of healing and home.” In conversation with Brother and I’ve Been Meaning To Tell You author, David Chariandy, they explore the importance of belonging, and finding strength amidst uncertainty and difference.
