battybookworm's review against another edition

challenging emotional informative inspiring medium-paced

4.5

This was mainly an informative text about Indigenous history in Canada. It's beautifully illustrated and each other tells a compelling part of their history. Some specific ones that stood out to me were Rosie and the fight and speech against The Mackenzie Pipeline. Much of the book feels like a jumping off point, and I now have a list of other pieces to check out or historical events/figures to look into.
