Indigenous Literature
Indigenous Literature refers to the body of written and oral works created by the original inhabitants of a region, often reflecting their cultures, traditions, and histories. This literature encompasses various forms, including stories, poetry, and plays, and is often rooted in the unique languages and worldviews of Indigenous Peoples.
These works serve to preserve cultural identity and convey important lessons, values, and experiences. Indigenous Literature often addresses themes such as connection to the land, community, and the impact of colonization, providing insight into the diverse perspectives and rich heritage of Indigenous communities.
