Themesedit
Gould's work contains themes of “love, loneliness, longing for connection, family, history, place, and music”.[8] She uses the term "Indigenous Assemblage" to categorize race, sex, and gender, as Gould was mixed-blood and identified as a lesbian.[9] According to Shanna Lewis, Gould's The Force of Gratitude features the resurgence of traditional Indigenous identity to explain that her father was Two Spirited.[10]
