ABOUT Survivance: Indigenous Poesis Zine Survivance is a collection of Indigenous poetry that highlights Indigenous narratives in order to heal, inform, empower, & mobilize Indigneous communities. Influenced by the social impact game Survivance, this collection of poetry came together and acts as a bridge between Indigenous tribes from the colonized lands of Canada and the United States of America. Survivance was created by Dr. Elizabeth LaPensée. LaPensée is an Anishinaabe, Métis, and Irish game researcher, designer, and writer whose focus is Indigenous game development. Her practice is informed by cultural values and teachings. She encourages community collaboration, which led to the partnership with R.I.S.E. for this meaningful collection. R.I.S.E.: Radical Indigenous Survivance & Empowerment is an Indigenous founded & operated artist/activist/warrior collective. R.I.S.E. is dedicated to the education, dissemination, & evolution of Indigenous art & culture. (http://burymyart.tumblr.com)
