Résumé

Cited in the Chicago Manual of Style

The groundbreaking Indigenous style guide every writer needs

A new editorial team continues the paradigm-shifting conversation started by the late Gregory Younging in his foundational Elements of Indigenous Style. Trusted by writers, editors, publishers, researchers, scholars, journalists, and communications professionals around the world, the second edition of Elements continues to offer crucial guidance to everyone who works with words on how to accurately, collaboratively, and ethically participate in projects involving Indigenous Peoples.

This second conversation updates and annotates Younging’s twenty-two succinct style principles and recommendations to reflect up-to-date, Indigenous-led best practices. The new edition also includes:

Advice on culturally appropriate writing and publishing practices, and guidance on specific editorial issues such as spelling and terminology.
Five new chapters covering author–editor relationships, identity and community affiliation, Two-Spirit and Indigiqueer identities, Indigenous citation practices, sensitivity reading, the representation of Indigenous languages and oral narratives in print, emerging issues in the digital world, and more.
Examples of projects and institutions that demonstrate best practices.
An expanded table of contents and full index for easy navigation.
