Memory Keeper is a collection of short memoirs by Kanien’kehá:ka author Dawn Cheryl Hill who grew up on Haudenosaunee territories straddling the colonial border between the USA and Canada. She was raised in a large family surviving multigenerational residual historical unresolved traumas of the residential school system. Her stories also speak of a childhood on the Re when life was simpler, and families were more close-knit. These stories are also personal recollections that are humorous, delightfully insightful and enthralling. Dawn Cheryl Hill is a psychiatric social worker. She provides worksheets and self-help exercises for the reader to process some of the mordant information included in these stories.
