Joseph Lee, an Aquinnah Wampanoag writer, delves into the rich Indigenous history of Martha’s Vineyard in his new book, “Nothing More of This Land: Community, Power, and the Search for Indigenous Identity.” While Martha’s Vineyard is often associated with luxury vacationing, Lee sheds light on the island’s past and what it means to be in community with other Indigenous individuals worldwide.

In a recent interview with Vogue, Lee shared his excitement and nervousness about his book being out in the world. He described the transition from solitary writing to promoting his work as both thrilling and daunting. His research process was a mix of conversations with family members, scouring tribal meeting records, perusing local newspapers, and interviewing people from different regions. Lee emphasized the importance of using diverse sources to gather as much information as possible.

When asked about books that influenced his own work, Lee credited Indigenous authors who came before him. He specifically mentioned Linda Coombs’ “Colonization and the Wampanoag Story,” a book that creatively imagines pre-colonization life in their tribe. Lee found inspiration in such works, not only for the factual information they provided but also for the personal reflection on being a Native author.

Lee’s book serves as a valuable addition to the literary landscape, offering a unique perspective on Indigenous history and identity. As he continues to share his story, Lee hopes to honor his heritage and contribute to a more inclusive narrative of Martha’s Vineyard’s past.
