His voice is calm, precise, and devastating in its honesty.

  In a world that persistently teaches us to critique and alter our bodies, where are the lessons on embracing and loving them?
   
  Understanding body acceptance isn’t as simple as ticking boxes on a checklist. It’s not about showering ourselves with compliments or indulging in self-care rituals and then magically achieving self-love. It’s a journey, much like navigating a vast, never-ending theme park. With a myriad of rides, from the thrilling roller coasters to the gentle carousels, everyone’s adventure is unique. Some may crave the adrenaline of the high-speed rides, while others find joy in the calm of the tea cups. That’s the beauty of it – our differences.
   
  Just as theme parks cater to diverse tastes, body acceptance is about finding what resonates with you. This book serves as your guide, the map you’re handed at the entrance. It offers directions and insights, but the real experience? That’s up to you to explore and embrace.
   
  Your adventure awaits. Are you ready to embark on this journey of self-discovery and love?

  Belonging is one of the most universal human needs, yet for many mixed-race Indigenous people, it can feel uncertain or contested. Tlingit author Alyssa London grew up with this tension, knowing who she was while sensing that others viewed her identity as something to debate. 
  In We Are Still Here, Alyssa interweaves her own story and conversations with Indigenous people across and beyond the United States to explore the deeper questions beneath identity: What defines belonging? Who gets to validate it? How do Indigenous people carry culture into the present when society often misunderstands or romanticizes them? 
  Through themes such as:Land- and place-based identity,Sovereignty and self-determination,Tribal economic development,Kinship, enrollment, and community-defined belonging,Cultural and artistic continuation,Representation and erasure, andMixed-race identity and belonging, 
  Alyssa offers a portrait of Indigenous life that is expansive, ongoing, and deeply human, seeking to lay to rest the painful misconception that "real" Native people exist only in the past. 
  We Are Still Here is both personal and collective. It reminds readers that identity is not something you earn or prove. It is something you inherit, live, and choose every day, without needing to justify it to anyone. 
  Heartfelt and hopeful, this book speaks to anyone who has ever questioned where they fit and affirms that belonging and identity are not given to you. They are yours to claim.
