An inspiring personal transformation through re-acquaintance with our Great Mother and a rediscovery of our original Indigenous selves. “I was lost before I was born”: the starting point of Pacheedaht Elder Bill Jones’ journey through a lifetime of decolonization. “You were all Indigenous once”: the starting point for ending a world based on exploitation and greed. The book continues the momentum begun at the Fairy Creek Blockades at Port Renfrew, BC in 2020 where both settlers and First Nations experienced a re-indigenization and became reacquainted with our Great Mother during the fight to save some of the last remaining old growth forest. As Elder Bill sat in a tent during a West Coast storm at the height of the protests, he experienced the final phase of his personal decolonization, his absolute re-indigenization when he realized: “I know what happened!”, a revelation that has informed his life ever since. Combining the story of Elder Bill’s personal life and ancestors, elder wisdom, settler feminism, and the inspirational story of the Fairy Creek Blockades — the largest act of civil disobedience in Canada — Listening, Once Again, to Our Great Mother is wisdom weaving to motivate those towards their own self-awakening, even after Elder Bill is gone.
