Summary
:
Nta'tugwaqanminen provides evidence that the Mi'gmaq of the Gespe'gewa'gi (Northern New Brunswick and the GaspÔe Peninsula) have occupied their territory since time immemorial. They were the sole occupants of it prior to European settlement and occupied it on a continuous basis. This book was written through an alliance between the Mi'gmaq of Northern Gespe'gewa'gi (GaspÔe Peninsula), their Elders and a group of eminent researchers in the field with the aim of reclaiming their history, both oral and written, in the context of what is known as knowledge re-appropriation. It also provides non-Aboriginal peoples with a view of how Mi'gmaq history looks when it is written from an Indigenous perspective.
