Join us on the third Tuesday of every month in the Armstrong Room for the St. Helens Public Library Book Club! (or online at https://us02web.zoom.us/j/82117410118?pwd=T1o4VnRIZVFkVFZ3VjFuS1B0cXNWQT09)

This month's book is #Not Your Princess: Voices of Native American Women Edited by Lisa Charleyboy & Mary Beth Leatherdale.

Whether looking back to a troubled past or welcoming a hopeful future, the powerful voices of Indigenous women across North America resound in this book.

...#NotYourPrincess presents an eclectic collection of poems, essays, interviews, and art that combine to express the experience of being a Native woman. Stories of abuse, humiliation, and stereotyping are countered by the voices of passionate women making themselves heard and demanding change.

Sometimes angry, often reflective, but always strong, the women in this book will give teen readers insight into the lives of women who, for so long, have been virtually invisible.1
