Yellow Medicine Review: A Journal of Indigenous Literature, Art, & Thought
The title Yellow Medicine Review is significant in that it incorporates the name of a river in Minnesota. The Dakota dug the yellow root of the moonseed plant for medicinal purposes—for healing. Such is the spirit of Yellow Medicine Review. The journal, however, is not a regional publication of only Dakota voices. Instead, it is an international platform, opening new pathways for scholarly and creative expression on the international scale, carrying us into the territory where emerging voices and visions are beginning to take their places among already established indigenous writers, artists, and scholars. Each issue is edited by a different Indigenous writer or scholar and contains only work from the Indigenous perspective.
