However, this boulder, I\u003csup\u003en\u003c\/sup\u003e'zhúje'waxóbe (EE(n)) ZHOO-jay wah-HO-bay), had a centuries-long relationship with Kanza people (Kaw Nation citizens). In this powerful collection of imagery, analysis, and reflection, Land is telling the story and the contributors explore narratives of place, how a grandfather rock became a monument, and how Kaw Nation citizens reunited with their relative, facilitating I\u003csup\u003en\u003c\/sup\u003e'zhúje'waxóbe shokhíbe (return of he\/she\/it home, to Kanza people\/Land).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003ci\u003eShokhí\u003c\/i\u003e, scholars, poets, activists, and artists explore the organizing and collaboration that brought I\u003csup\u003en\u003c\/sup\u003e'zhúje'waxóbe home to Kaw Nation-owned Allegawaho Memorial Heritage Park in 2024. Indigenous and non-Indigenous contributors chronicle the winding path a group of people took to dismantle a monument, understand intersecting forgotten histories, rematriate a grandfather rock, and confront our ongoing colonial history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e C.
