Survivance: Narratives of Native PresenceThe concept and idea of survivance has revolutionized our understanding of the lives, creative impulses, literary practices, and histories of the Native peoples of North America. Engendered and articulated by the Anishinaabe critic and writer Gerald Vizenor, survivance throws into relief the dynamic, inventive, and enduring heart of Native cultures well beyond the colonialist trappings of absence, tragedy, and powerlessness.

The concept and idea of survivance has revolutionized our understanding of the lives, creative impulses, literary practices, and histories of the Native peoples of North America. Engendered and articulated by the Anishinaabe critic and writer Gerald Vizenor, survivance throws into relief the dynamic, inventive, and enduring heart of Native cultures well beyond the colonialist trappings of absence, tragedy, and powerlessness. Vizenor argues that many people in the world are enamored with and obsessed by the concocted images of the Indian--the simulations of indigenous character and cultures as essential victims. Native survivance, on the other hand, is an active sense of presence over historical absence, deracination, and oblivion. The nature of survivance is unmistakable in Native stories, natural reason, active traditions, customs, and narrative resistance and is clearly observable in personal attributes such as humor, spirit, cast of mind, and moral courage in literature. In this anthology, eighteen scholars discuss the themes and practices of survivance in literature, examining the legacy of Vizenor's original insights and exploring the manifestations of survivance in a variety of contexts. Contributors interpret and compare the original writings of William Apess, Eric Gansworth, Louis Owens, Carter Revard, Gerald Vizenor, and Velma Wallis, among others.Binding Type: Paperback

True-to-photos color, solid build, and great for organizing
Color: 2Pcs Green
Durability: This tray feels well-made and sturdy. I replaced a fragile tray that shattered when it fell, and this one feels like it would hold up far better to normal day-to-day handling. I am not going to stress-test it, but it feels substantial and nicely finished.
Use and ease of use: It does exactly what a tray should do. It is easy to carry, stable when set down, and the woven leather surface feels secure and helps keep items from sliding around.
Color: The green woven leather matches the website photos. No surprises, no weird undertones. It looks clean and high quality in person.
Organization: This is where it really shines for me. It is a great fit for corralling items on a table, counter, or dresser and instantly makes things look more intentional. It is not stackable, but it is not advertised as stackable either, so that is fine.
Size and accuracy: The dimensions match the schematics online, which I appreciated. It fits the space I bought it for exactly as expected.
Overall, it looks high-end, feels durable, and is a simple upgrade if you want a tray that helps keep a space organized without feeling flimsy.

Nice tray!
Color: Black
This tray has helped me organize my desk better. I use it for my phone stand and charger, as well as a place to hold and charge my vapors. It has a nice rubber mat inside so nothing gets scratched on the wood. It is well put together and seems very sturdy. I think it will last a long time! It works for anywhere in the house.

Classic gents’ tray
Color: Black
This tray is large enough to hold the items a guy normally carries around in his pockets (e.g., wallet, eyeglasses, cellphone, money, keys, lip balm). The tray is lowkey attractive and keeps a dresser from looking cluttered. The tray bottom is thin yet sturdy. Good price and worth the buy.

Pretty functional
Color: Llight Gray
Looks good and very surprising. But need to check for QA. Mine came cracked on one of the corners and I didnt noticed it. Other than that, I recommend these. Pretty roomy for all your things.
