Summary
A call to action for Indigenous communities, and to the non-Indigenous population that can and must work with them. An impassioned call to action, Clarence Louie imparts decades of wisdom and takes forceful aim at the relationship between First Nations and colonial Canada and the United States. Believing that education is fundamental to success, Louie also argues that change requires a new attitude. By turns angry, direct, humorous, and practical, Louie offers a bold blueprint for what the future of First Nations governance could look like.
