One of the representations of themes of Seepeetza is different stereotypes addressed about those people who are indigenous. It entails how these people perceive other ideas concerning the stereotypes, which is determined by how people were treated within their culture. The dream suggests how these indigenous people were seen by those colonials, particularly about their illiteracy levels and savages, which were civilized, and through this, they lacked a religion (Kay 2017). This incorporates how Seepeetza likes to dream, and mostly what she dreams about is her family. This involves daydreaming about her family members.

The iconic representation of the pastoral industry represents the colonial appropriation where the country was being transformed into land bundles owned by white people. The narrative juxtaposition suggests that the homestead story should be embraced in the light of the latter sessions. The land is being occupied by settlers, and thus it bears aboriginal body signs, and these represent practices of past people. The bone fragments testify to the massacre. Seepeezta is the name that she is regarded by the family members. The one she is obliged to use is Martha stone in British Columbia (Kay 2017). The two names divide the version of self into two, and this symbolizes physical violence and psychological of a reign where the aim was to “effect the total assimilation of native people in to the body politic of Canadian society, through policies of removing children from their parents and their societies suppressing their language, and systematically negating the value of native cultures.”

Seepeetza has routes of escape in alleviating loneliness and homesickness. This incorporates how she can indulge herself in reading mostly about those secret journals she writes annually. Seepeetza focuses on the dangers of diary keeping in the world. This involves the family letters being censored, and there are negative comments on children’s punishment.
