Sasha LaPointe has always longed for a sense of home. When she was a child, her family moved around frequently, often staying in barely habitable church attics and trailers, dangerous places for young Sasha.

With little more to guide her than a passion for the thriving punk scene of the Pacific Northwest and a desire to live up to the responsibility of being the namesake of her beloved great-grandmother—a linguist who helped preserve her Indigenous language of Lushootseed—Sasha throws herself headlong into the world, determined to build a better future for herself and her people.

Set against a backdrop of the breathtaking beauty of Coast Salish ancestral land and imbued with the universal spirit of punk, Red Paint is ultimately a story of the ways we learn to find our true selves while fighting for our right to claim a place of our own.

Examining what it means to be vulnerable in love and in art, Sasha offers up an unblinking reckoning with personal traumas amplified by the collective historical traumas of colonialism and genocide that continue to haunt native peoples. Red Paint is an intersectional autobiography of lineage, resilience, and, above all, the ability to heal.

Sasha’s voice is powerful, her story cuts and allows me to better live and honor the truths inside me and surrounding me. A must read, an adventure into soulful, punk, and crisp life well lived.

Powerful, deep, true, and revealing!

What stood out the most was the author speaking the truth. Truth that needs to be heard by all of white america. I fear not enough will listen but I would like to be wrong

Truth

Sasha's retelling of her female ancestors' stories as well as her own will break your heart for the indigenous Coast Salish people- both past and present. Sasha's life in particular, left me bitter about how white men from our shared community are allowed to treat an indigenous woman. My strongest reactions came when her romantic partners questioned her coping mechanisms, her best attempts at reconciling hundreds of years of oppression they seemingly refused to acknowledge. Thankfully, the author had wonderful friendships with women to help her endure. A must read for anyone who thinks now is the right time to right our wrongs.

A gift to us!

This is not a book you read to be entertained. Her story was very moving throughout. I have lived in the Pacific Northwest for much of my life so do always enjoy references to many familiar places. In the final chapter we do learn that she has a different partner than those mentioned in her story. I hope she has found comfort, peace, and love from all around her.

Heartbreakingly moving story.

Healing is always such a hard road to travel. Native Americans, like other minority cultures need a lot of healing from the traumatic situations that their (our) people have been through. This book was a journey of healing for the author.

I really enjoyed this read. It was nice to hear about my little corner of the world through another Natives words. Those words held so much power and honesty in them of our people throughout the generations.

Powerful and Honest

I loved the vividly raw journey and reflection. Sasha’s vulnerability serves as a means for reflection, tenderness and acceptance of our own lives.

Beautifully raw journey of healing

I’ve been meaning to read Sasha’s writing for years, and now I wish I’d done so sooner. This book, while a deeply personal story of transformation, loss, grief, and healing; is also a universal story of searching and finding self through connection to land and family history.

A deeply personal voice, powerful narrative, and captivating ownership of place.
