Unsettling Canada : a national wake-up call

Manuel, Arthur. (Author). Derrickson, Ronald M. (Added Author).

Brings a fresh perspective and new ideas to Canada's most glaring piece of unfinished business: the place of Indigenous peoples within the country's political and economic space. The story is told through Arthur's voice but he traces both of their individual struggles against the colonialist and often racist structures that have been erected to keep Indigenous peoples in their place in Canada.
