Aprašymas

With sharp wit and insightful prose, Mildred C. Poplar reveals the inner landscapes of a dedicated group of people advocating for the rights of Indigenous Peoples in British Columbia, through personal, political, social, and spiritual anecdotes.

Part memoir and part chronicle, this first-hand historical account tells the true story of the political struggles and legal actions of the Union of British Columbia Indian Chiefs (UBCIC) to protect Aboriginal Title, Rights and Treaties during the Patriation of the Canadian Constitution between 1978 and 1989. From a childhood in Northern Yukon, to a memorable job interview in Prince George, to demonstrations on Parliament Hill under police scrutiny, this book underscores the humanity and strength of the activists who have fought for the inherent rights of Indigenous Peoples.
