From the Roots Up | Tasha Spillett

Dez and Miikwan’s stories continue in this sequel to Surviving the City. Dez’s grandmother has passed away. Grieving, and with nowhere else to go, she’s living in a group home. On top of everything else, Dez is navigating a new relationship and coming into her identity as a Two-Spirit person. Miikwan is crushing on the school’s new kid Riel, but doesn’t really understand what Dez is going through. Will she learn how to be a supportive ally to her best friend? Elder Geraldine is doing her best to be supportive, but she doesn’t know how to respond when the gendered protocols she’s grown up with that are being thrown into question. Will Dez be comfortable expressing her full identity? And will her community relearn the teachings and overcome prejudice to celebrate her for who she is?

Wow, y‘all. Spillett and Donovan have created another accessible, immersive, empathetic comic that MATTERS. This time around, they dig into how their Two-Spirit characters settle into their own identities AND how allies can unpack new ideas with compassion and loving intent, even when those ideas challenge their worldview. It‘s excellent. 5 stars.
