In his poignant, powerful memoir, Not from Here, Johnson embarks on an extraordinary, 2,000-mile journey across the Upper Midwest and Northern Plains to find the place where his father's ashes belonged.As a white man with Norwegian and English lineage, Johnson explores both America and the question of belonging to a place whose history holds the continuing legacy of the displacement, dispossession, and genocide of Native peoples.More than a personal narrative, Not from Here illuminates the national silence around unresolved questions of accountability, race, and identity politics, and the dilemma of how to take responsibility for a past we did not create. Johnson's story--about the past living in the present; of redemption, fate, family, tribe, and nation; of love and grief--raises profound questions about belonging, identity, and place.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52161690272032,"sku":"NEW1439912459","price":29.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51mtLg9ZfCL.jpg?v=1786132910","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/not-from-here-a-memoir-1439912459","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
