If her brother was a little more successful, the pressure came off from her. If her sister screwed something up, there was less expectation of her to succeed. Things get complicated as her parents figure out that she is queer and she realizes the distinction between what she wants and what others want of her. She looks at grading metrics and relative successes and averages and how honestly difficult and demanding it is to be a McDonald’s employee.

Zeroing in on the story of one family told across generations, Miss Chief bears witness to the genocidal forces and structures that dispossessed and attempted to erase Indigenous peoples. Featuring many figures pulled from history as well as new individuals created for this story, Volume Two explores the legacy of colonial violence in the children’s work camps (called residential schools by some), the Sixties Scoop, and the urban disconnection of contemporary life. Ultimately, it is a story of resilience and reconnection, and charts the beginnings of an Indigenous future that is deeply rooted in an experience of Indigenous history—a perspective Miss Chief, a millennia-old legendary being, can offer like none other.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eBlending history, fiction, and memoir in bold new ways, \u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe Memoirs of Miss Chief Eagle Testickle\u003c\/span\u003e is reshaping our shared understanding and promising to change the way we see everything that lies ahead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eVol 1 is available \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/rattiincantati.com\/products\/the-memoirs-of-miss-chief-eagle-testickle-vol-1-a-true-and-exact-accounting-of-the-history-of-turtle-island\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardcover book, 264 pages with color illustrations throughout. \u003c\/span\u003e","brand":"McClelland \u0026 Stewart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44769415495917,"sku":"RIAPPN23047","price":44.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0566\/4768\/0150\/files\/Miss-Chief-EAgle-Testicle-Vol-2.jpg?v=1704926461"},{"product_id":"a-frog-in-the-fall-and-later-on","title":"A FROG IN THE FALL (AND LATER ON)","description":"\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\"A tale about toads, frogs and life\"\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eA minor frog (hatched this spring) encounters two toads, who have captured the ghost of a Shungiku flower that withered and died just recently.

Carrasco’s distinct cinematic style layers detailed panels and spreads, creating a multiplicity of perspectives, at once dizzying and hypnotic. Vignettes unspool in proximity to our own social realities and expand into the outer layers of possibility. Whether in the club or a robot repair workshop, the characters in these three interconnected stories burst across frames until they practically step off the page. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA boy becomes bored at church with his grandmother until he tries a psychedelic drug. A group of friends are told that they need a rare battery if they want any chance of reviving their friend. Street style and cybernetics meet and burst into riotous dancing. Kindness and violence might not be as distant from each other as we think.
