Vision
From: Tracking the Caribou Queen
$0.70
The chapter reflects on Margie’s recounting of the 1964 Caribou Carnival and the Caribou Queen, learning what stretching formula meant, her relationships with her mother, a baby in a parka, the implicit racism of her mothers judgments, and the freedom of the caribou.
