Deborah Jackson Taffa - WHISKEY TENDER

In this interview, I chat with Deborah Jackson Taffa about Whiskey Tender, telling an intersectional story, portraying blended backgrounds versus oversimplifying the Native experience, weaving history into her own story, what surprised her the most when she was writing her memoir. her title and cover, and much more.
Deborah's recommended reads are:

Shutter by Ramona Emerson

The Missing Morningstar by Stacie Shannon Denetsosie

The Berry Pickers by Amanda Peters

The Strange Beautiful by Carla Crujido
