    Raising Spirit in Blackfoot Territory

    Collaborative Design and Ethnographic Refusal

    Jan Newberry

    Through an examination of the ethnographic dilemmas in the Raising Spirit project – a multi-year, multimodal collaboration between a university and Indigenous community organization to articulate child-rearing values in Blackfoot territory – this book looks at how to produce knowledge in a system designed to erase the voices it is trying to bring to the fore, and reimagines ethnographic methods in anthropology.
