Nutaui's Cap Bob Bartel
Description
Nutaui’s Cap is a non-fiction children’s story of Indigenous resilience and courage, and of the determination to fight for what is right. When low-level flying by NATO jets upsets her family’s way of life, Nanass, a young Innu girl, is eager to join her father and the other members of her Sheshatshiu community in protest. Then her father and other protestors are arrested. Nanass has little to comfort her, except her father’s well-worn ball cap and the promise of the land that the Innu people will triumph. Author Bob Bartel says of this story, “During the period 1986 to 1990, the Innu Nation engaged in a historic struggle for their rights and their land...a formative time filled with many stories of courage and heroism that helped them dispel despair and invite hope for the future. This time of protest provides the background for the story of Nutaui’s Cap...Although some problems still exist, the community has come a long way on the road to recovery.”
