Also called miskominaga wunj (in Anish­inaa­be­mowin ), and Rubus idaeus (among authors who count them as one species and not two).  Also called a bramble, as are its sister-species in 🍇︎ blackberry/raspberry  genus Rubus, and its cousin-species in sister-genus 🌹︎ rose  genus Rosa — all with many prickles along their stems.

Despite its common name, botanically, its fruit is not a berry, but an "aggregate".

Part of 🍇︎ blackberry/raspberry  genus Rubus in 🌹︎ rose  family Rosaceae in 🍎︎ apple / 🍇︎ berry / buckthorn / elm / hemp / 🌹︎ rose  order Rosales.

Native to much of 🇨🇦 🇺🇸 🇲🇽 North America.   Cultivated and invasive in temperate areas a lot farther south.
