A root cause of terrorism in far-away countries, Canadians are told, is poor, desperate young people who turn their frustrations and anger on their "rich oppressors." Uprising brings this scenario home to Canada. When impoverished, disheartened, poorly educated, but well-armed aboriginal young people find a modern revolutionary leader in the tradition of 1880s rebellion leader Louis Riel, they rally with a battle cry "Take Back the Land!" Theirs is a fight to right the wrongs inflicted on them by "the white settlers." They know their minority force cannot take on all Canada. They don't need to. A surprise attack on the nation's most vulnerable assetsits abundant energy resourcessends the Canadian Armed Forces scrambling and politicians reeling. Over a few tension-filled days as the battles rage, the frantic prime minister can only watch as the insurrection paralyzes the country. But when energy-dependent Americans discover the southward flow of Canadian hydroelectricity, oil, and natural gas is halted, they do not remain passive. Although none of Canada's leaders saw it coming, the shattering consequences unfold with the same plausible harmony by which quiet aboriginal protests decades ago became the eerie premonitions of today's stand-offs and "days of action."

An eleven-year-old girl and her incestuous stepfather. Two star-crossed lovers. A strung-out drug addict. A struggling single parent. An aspiring ballet dancer. A single young woman. A loving middle-aged married couple. All embodied in one woman. Revealing the evolution of Alexander Scott. Bold and stimulating, Butterfly Uprising takes a provocative, uncompromising look at the metamorphosis of one woman's life in multiple dramas. Plunging headlong into the distinct fusion of heartfelt tribulations, this gripping emotional drama spans the resilient existence of a multi-troubled woman's struggles to overcome her stumbling blocks as they careen in and out of her life. In the gray areas between blaming others and self-destruction, the victimized and the perpetrator, there are no easy answers. Comedic, triumphant, and always unforeseeable, Butterfly Uprising creatively correlates the developmental stages of a butterfly through the maturation of Alex and uncovers our inner ability to prevail through undeniable grace. Butterfly Uprising tells interlocking stories of incest, infidelity, divorce, domestic violence, and drug addiction, the highs and the lows, the peaks and valleys, all these experiences embodied in the lifetime of one woman. Lesser crisis claim lives every day, leaving victims of shame and torment. Sometimes, yes, they rise above it, although it is never this simple. Their unrealized transformation may be in vain, their realized transformation may be life changing, and who knows what heights they can reach.

In five sections—Childhood, Migration, Half/First Generation, Return, and Future—the thirty-three contributors to this anthology write movingly, often hauntingly, of their lives in Haiti and the United States. Their dyaspora, much like a butterfly's fluctuating path, is a shifting landscape in which there is much travel between two worlds, between their place of origin and their adopted land. This compilation of essays and poetry brings together Haitian-Americans of different generations and backgrounds, linking the voices for whom English is a first language and others whose dreams will always be in French and Kreyòl. Community activists, scholars, visual artists and filmmakers join renowned journalists, poets, novelists and memoirists to produce a poignant portrayal of lives in transition. Edwidge Danticat, in her powerful introduction, pays tribute to Jean Dominique, a sometime participant in the Haitian dyaspora and a recent martyr to Haiti's troubled politics, and the many members of the dyaspora who refused to be silenced. Their stories confidently and passionately illustrate the joys and heartaches, hopes and aspirations of a relatively new group of immigrants belonging to two countries that have each at times maligned and embraced them.
