In honour of National Indigenous History Month, author Michelle Good has released her newest book at the 22nd Talking Stick Festival in Vancouver, a month-long celebration of Indigenous art and performances with events running until July 2.
Good says her book, Truth Telling: Seven Conversations About Indigenous Life in Canada, is a series of essays that encourages non-Indigenous Canadians to consider what they really know about Indigenous life.
The book follows the success of her novel, Five Little Indians, which won several awards including Canada Reads 2022 and the Governor General’s Literary Award.
Good joined CBC Radio to talk more about her inspiration for the book.
