Product Description
This unique collection of readings written primarily by Indigenous scholars explores how the convergence of racism and colonialism has shaped the lives of Indigenous people. The text aims to provide insight into what can be done to address historic wrongdoings while also showing how much can be gained by working across differences, revitalizing original partnerships and agreements, and coming together collectively as Canadians to combat racism.
Review
"The breadth and diversity of topics presented provide compelling evidence of the ways in which the compound effects of indigeneity and racism, in both historical and contemporary contexts, emerge from the various social-political and economic inequities that accompany Indigenous existence." âAngela Robinson, Memorial University\
"This book is a great resource for anyone who is interested in understanding Indigenous identity, race, and Indigenous-settler relations." âAngela Mashford-Pringle, University of Toronto
