Abstract: In Issue 54 of the Bank Street "Occasional Paper Series," the goal is to highlight the contributions of Indigenous authors creating Indigenous Children's and Young Adult Literature (ICYAL) that is changing the landscape of how Indigeneity is both represented and created. Following the invitation to researchers, teachers, authors, and readers of ICYAL, the issue shows how ICYAL is being taken up and provides an inspiration to educators to use ICYAL in their own classrooms. This issue showcases works that could demonstrate the ways that ICYAL stories are helping to engage, represent, and reimagine Indigeneity across multiple contexts, in Turtle Island, and around the globe. The life experiences portrayed in ICYAL are crucial in how they center the diversity of Indigeneity, portraying a vast array of distinct Indigenous Nations and communities, and at the same time, speaking to universal human experiences. ICYAL offers fascinating insights into the experiences of Indigenous Peoples across time spans, lands, and contexts. Indigenous authors create works that are centering youth and home communities in ways that center strength, power, and survivance. This special issue of the Occasional Paper Series includes scholarship from across geographical and disciplinary contexts, writing from community experts, and poetry and creative writing from Indigenous authors, reflecting on their experiences as creators of ICYAL.
