Salt Baby by Falen Johnson
Growing up on the Six Nations native reserve, Salt Baby never quite fit in, as a white looking Indian fair skin and curly hair made her more of a Shirley Temple type than a Pocahontas type. Salt Baby navigates the native reserve and the city while explaining herself, as well as her blood quantum, to the world and to Alligator It s always different for Indians.
