Today, Jensen teaches creative writing at the University of Arkansas and is outspoken about Indigenous rights and harm to the environment, as evidenced by the first essay in the book, which is set near the Standing Rock protest of the Dakota Access Pipeline. Jensen grew up in the Great Plains of rural Iowa as a white-passing Métis woman whose father, an American Indian and card-carrying member of the NRA, taught her to shoot guns. It is an odd confluence of issues not many would place in conversation, but they arise naturally from Jensen’s life. In addition to tackling America’s addiction to guns, Jensen’s book touches on a slew of other issues, including indigenous rights, the transmission of trauma, and the racist imaginary in MFA programs. ![]() ![]() In Carry: A Memoir of Survival on Stolen Land, author Toni Jensen uses a series of interconnected personal essays to spotlight the other 99 percent of shootings to challenge how we talk and think about gun violence.
