Chris La Tray, author of Becoming Little Shell, will share his journey of discovering his heritage and the history of his ancestors. La Tray is a descendent of the Pembina Band of the mighty Red River of the North of what is now Minnesota and North Dakota, and a citizen of the Little Shell Tribe of Chippewa Indians.
“Both personal and historical, “Becoming Little Shell” is a testament to the power of storytelling, to family and legacy, and to finding home. Infused with candor, heart, wisdom, and an abiding love for a place and a people, Chris La Tray’s remarkable journey is both revelatory and redemptive.”
