Mary Two-Axe Earley is a Cree woman from the Muskeg Lake Cree Nation in Saskatchewan. She was raised on the reserve in a traditional way of life, but she was also exposed to the racism and discrimination that Indigenous peoples face in Canada. Mary's story is a powerful indictment of the Canadian government's treatment of Indigenous peoples, and it shows the resilience and strength of the Indigenous spirit.

Suzanne Methot is a Métis woman from the Red River Valley in Manitoba. She was raised in a more urban environment, but she still experienced the racism and discrimination that Indigenous peoples face in Canada. Suzanne's story is a reminder that Indigenous peoples are not a monolithic group, and that their experiences vary greatly depending on their individual circumstances.

Despite their different backgrounds, Mary and Suzanne have both dedicated their lives to working for reconciliation and healing between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples in Canada. They have both spoken out about the injustices that Indigenous peoples have faced, and they have worked to build bridges between the two communities.

From Our Land to Our Land is a powerful and moving memoir that tells the story of two Indigenous women's journey of reconciliation and healing. The book is a must-read for anyone who wants to learn more about the history of Indigenous peoples in Canada and the ongoing struggle for justice and equality.
