If poetry is a place to question, <i>I Am a Body of Land</i> by Shannon Webb-Campbell is an attempt to explore a relationship to poetic responsibility and accountability, and frame poetry as a form of re-visioning.<br><br>Here Webb-Campbell revisits the text of her earlier work <i>Who Took My Sister?</i> to examine her self, her place and her own poetic strategies. These poems are efforts to decolonize, unlearn, and undoo harm.<br><br>Reconsidering individual poems and letters, Webb-Campbell's confessional writing circles back, and challenges what it means to ask questions of her own settler-Indigenous identity, belonging, and attempts to cry out for community, and call in with love.<br><br>Edited, with an introduction by multiple award-winning writer and activist Lee Maracle.
