"A collection of Indigenous poetry, artwork, and essays specific to what is now known as Southern California. The lead authors separated these pieces into the four natural parts of our story: T{acute]owla (Root), Kâup (Sleep, Dormant), Wâolnish (Cultivate), and $âoa (Bloom), with each section exploring the eras of pre-contact, post-contact, present, and future. Collectively, these pieces portray the multifarious effects of colonization on Indigenous people of this area, from the California Mission system, to the traumatic assimilationist policies that are still felt today. At the same time, a focus on ancestral teachings, the nostalgia of growing up on the rez, and the joys of (self)love and independence can be found in a way that defies these wounds."--

Based on the true-life story of Yurok men called to serve in World War I, this story follows three cousins as they struggle with being combat soldiers on the Western Front.
