(2018) - All Our Relations: Finding the Path Forward - Tanya Talaga

All Our Relations: Finding the Path Forward is a part of the CBC Massey Lecture series. In this book, Talaga, a journalist of Anishinaabe and Polish descent, writes about the history of resistance, resilience, and civil rights activism of the Indigenous peoples. She focuses on the higher than average suicide rates in countries subjected to colonization (ex. Canada, Australia, United States, Brazil, and Finland), and goes in depth into the Canadian context, aiming to demonstrate the extent to which Indigenous families still continue to live under the weight of colonialism, alongside the role of the Catholic Church and its complicity. Talaga emphasizes the cultural genocide which occurred as a direct result of colonization, affected Indigenous peoples and generations to come.
