Marc G StevensonSelf-described "maverick on the margins of academia," Dr. Stevenson lobs a few well-placed grenades into unfamiliar battlefields where representatives of Canada's settler society and Indigenous Canadians fight for their rights and futures. In doing s, he attempts to create real-not imaginary-space for Canada's Indigenous peoples in Confederation, to divest Canadians of their prejudices about Indigenous peoples and their rights to their traditional lands, and to address the systemic racism that keeps our founding peoples on the sidelines at a time when we need them the most.

Stevenson has worked for and with Inuit, First Nations, and Métis communities for over three decades on matters directly affecting their rights and interests in lands and resources that have sustained them for generations. He's also held positions with Parks Canada, the Government of the Northwest Territories, and the University of Alberta, in addition to serving on multi-stakeholder wildlife co-management, environmental monitoring, and landuse planning boards. He is the author and editor of numerous academic articles and books, and has written extensively on Indigenous ecological knowledge, Indigenous research protocols, wildlife co-management, traditional economies, Inuit socio-political organization, and archaeological method and theory.

Stevenson holds a PhD in anthropology from the University of Alberta as well as a master's and a bachelor of honours degree in archaeology from Simon Fraser University. Do You Eat the Red Ones Last? is his most recent and candid attempt to share his experiences and perspectives on Indigenous-non-Indigenous relations in Canada with a wider audience. He is currently enjoying semi-retirement in Halfmoon Bay (xwilkway), Shíshálh Swiya (Sechelt traditional territory), B.C., with his wife Kathryn, Alaskan malamutes Naya and Suliq, and Himalayan cat Tynaq.
