“I am incredibly proud of who I am and where I come from. As a descendent of storytellers, I’ve felt a responsibility from a young age to preserve and pass on stories of survivance and celebration.” —Diné (Navajo) poet, educator and playwright @kinsalehues (Kinsale Drake)
“Indigenous peoples are often framed in a negative light due to stereotype, underrepresentation, miseducation and tragic narratives, but my work seeks to find joy, futurities and the beauty of our survivance,” says Kinsale, whose first book, “The Sky Was Once A Dark Blanket,” a collection about Native music, won the 2023 National Poetry Series.
Kinsale is also the director of NDN Girls Book Club. “We platform Indigenous authors, support Native youth in their creative endeavors nationwide, provide free writing workshops, provide books for tribal libraries and reading circles and send out Native literature for free.
Collectivity is powerful; supporting one another makes a world of difference. My work is ultimately for my community and to make them proud.”
