Maintaining one's culture is important to an individual. While some of the characters of this novel have begun to lose touch with their Native American heritage, they are also beginning to realize the value of that culture and are seeking ways of reconnecting with it. Language is another issue. Throughout The Marrow Thieves, author Cherie Dimaline presents language as a powerful tool for preserving identity, memory, and culture, as well as for resisting an oppressive system. A key example is one of the novel's most powerful moments: when Minerva destroys the Recruiters' marrow-harvesting system through a song in her native language. The song is made up of dreams which are recounted in her native language. Through Minerva’s miracle, Dimaline suggests that language is much more than a means of communication and expression. It is a carrier of cultural memory and ancestral wisdom, capable of confronting oppression and bringing down a “broken system.”
