S2E3: Jordan Abel

On today’s show, we talk to Jordan Abel. Jordan is the author of many award-winning books, most recently, Nishga, an experimental, multi-media exploration of urban Indigenous identity and the intergenerational trauma wrought by Canada’s residential schools. Jordan has been working in the poetry field for many years, winning the Griffin Prize with his work Injun. Now, with a PhD from Simon Fraser University, he teaches Indigenous Literatures and Creative Writing at the University of Alberta. His work has been published in numerous journals and magazines—including Canadian Literature, The Capilano Review, and Poetry Is Dead—and his visual poetry has been included in exhibitions at the Polygon Gallery and the Oslo Pilot Project Room in Oslo, Norway. Today, he joins us to talk about his creative process, breaking the “rules” of writing, and bridging disciplinary divides. Transcript coming soon. Find Jordan at the links below.
