Highway of Tears: A True Story of Racism, Indifference and the Pursuit of Justice for Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls by Jessica McDiarmid

5.0

An excellent investigation of the tragic cases on Canada's Highway of Tears. McDiarmid engages with political, historical, cultural, and gender factors that are involved and Canada's government's failure to properly investigate cases and put an end to the issue. I particularly appreciated McDiarmid taking time to explain a missing girl case that occurred around the same time, however, saw much greater attention and money invested into investigating it as she was a white, middle-class woman. A very important comparison.
