Jason EagleSpeaker

Only a few short years after the Occupation of Alcatraz, the Wounded Knee Incident and the Shootout at Pine Ridge Reservation, a boy was conceived.

Born in Seattle, raised on four reservations and in two cities, Jason EagleSpeaker is both Blackfoot and Duwamish – the one his family called “that li’l half-buffalo, half-salmon ndn”. Today, he is a nationally published Author, Illustrator and Founder of Eaglespeaker Publishing.

Based in Nova Scotia, Canada, he (usually) travels extensively, creating endless non-fiction works with Indigenous authors from throughout North America. His hard hitting true stories focus on revealing the modern experiences of Indigenous people (the strengths and the struggles).
