Monchalin's timely and innovative book exposes ugly truths about Canada's 'colonial problem' in a comprehensive and compelling way. With a clear focus on the restoration of justice and harmony for Indigenous peoples, Monchalin provides pathways for reimagining and decolonizing current relationships via land-based resurgence, artistic resistance, community campaigns, and ultimately reclaiming the rebellious dignity of Indigenous nations and peoples. This is an important read for anyone seeking Indigenous perspectives on justice and the impacts of ongoing, shape-shifting colonization on Indigenous communities.--Jeff Corntassel, University of Victoria Written from an Indigenous perspective, comprehensive yet easy to read, and complete with discussion questions and activities, this book would be a useful classroom text for justice studies, sociology, Indigenous studies, political science, and history. Highly recommended!--Rob Nestor, Justice Studies, University of Regina This textbook is long overdue, brilliantly written, and filled with pertinent information that all Canadians and all Indigenous peoples need to know. Monchalin leaves no stone unturned. Understanding this text is key if we truly want to learn to 'live together in a good way' and move toward a 'just' society.--Wenona Victor, University of the Fraser Valley
