The follow-up to Wanda John-Kehewin’s debut, In the Dog House, Seven Sacred Truths is a powerful exploration of an Indigenous woman’s healing journey.
Wanda John-Kehewin uses writing as a therapeutic medium to understand and respond to the near-decimation of First Nations cultures and traditions. Seeing the world through “brown” eyes, she makes new meaning of the past, present, and future through a consideration of Love, Wisdom, Truth, Honesty, Respect, Humility, and Courage. John-Kehewin strives to create a safe space and provide the opportunity to experience another perspective; she invites readers to embark on their own healing journeys. The closer you are to the truth, she writes, the freer you become.
