Beyond the Page: An Indigenous book and film club -nedí nezų (Good Medicine) Online
Presenter: Cora Coady
Join us in conversation. Beyond the Page is a relaxed gathering open to all of York community members. Throughout this series, we will be discussing a variety of Indigenous materials such as novels, short stories, letters and films. This month, join us in discussing all things love and engage with some or all of nedí nezų (Good Medicine).
nedí nezų (Good Medicine) explores the beautiful space that being a sensual Indigenous woman creates--not only as a partner, a fantasy, a heartbreak waiting to happen but also as an auntie, a role model, a voice that connects to others walking the same path. From the online hookup world of DMs, double taps, and secret texts to earth-shakingly erotic encounters under the northern stars to the ever-complicated relationship Indigenous women have with mainstream society, this poetry collection doesn't shy away from depicting the gorgeous diversity in decolonized desire. Instead, Campbell creates the most intimate of spaces, where the tea is hot and a seat is waiting at the kitchen table, surrounded by the tantalizing laughter of aunties telling stories.
