The Gatherings: Reimagining Indigenous-Settler Relations (University of Toronto Press, 2021), written by a group of Wabanaki and non-Native co-authors, tells the story of a series of cross-cultural meetings. From 1987 to 1993, a series of weekend-long meetings between Indigenous and non-Native individuals was held throughout the Gulf of Maine bioregion, in Wabanaki territory. They sought to explore some of the most pressing questions at the heart of Truth and Healing efforts in the United States and Canada.
