I was completely complicit and didn't think twice about entering a space that could cover their walls with images of contemporary Indigenous perspectives, but exclude their physical bodies from entering and experiencing. In that moment, I felt like a real Canadian.' (from the Introduction). Before I Was a Critic I Was a Human Being is the debut collection of creative nonfiction essays by Amy Fung. In it, Fung takes a closer examination at Canada's mythologies of multiculturalism, settler colonialism, and identity through the lens of a national art critic. Following the tangents of a foreign-born perspective and the complexities and complicities in participating in ongoing acts of colonial violence, the book as a whole takes the form of a very long land acknowledgement. Taken individually, each piece roots itself in the learning and unlearning process of a first generation settler immigrant as she unfurls each region's sense of place and identity."-- $c Provided by publisher. 530 $a Issued also in electronic format. 650 0 $a Immigrants $z Canada. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008123048 650 0 $a Indigenous peoples $x Land tenure $z Canada. 650 0 $a Essays. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85044914 651 0 $a Canada $x Colonization. 655 7 $a Essays. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026094 655 7 $a Essays. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919922 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1919922 710 2 $a Artspeak Gallery, $e issuing body. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nr96014247 776 08 $i Online version: $a Fung, Amy. $t Before I was a critic I was a human being. $b First edition. $d Toronto : Book*hug Press : Artspeak Gallery, 2019 $z 9781771665063 $z 9781771665063 $w (OCoLC)1089808235 830 0 $a Essais (Toronto, Ont.) ; $v no. 7. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2018095716 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191210022243.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=36A98A461B1B11EAA846F92397128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
