ISBN:  9780889774018 (pbk.) 0889774013 (pbk.) Description:  xix, 324 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references. Summary:  "Exposes a system of apartheid in Canada that led to the largest youth-driven human rights movement in the country's history. The movement was inspired by Shannen Koostachin, a girl from the Cree First Nation who lived in a very poor community called Attawapiskat in Northern Ontario. All she wanted was a decent education. She found an ally in Charlie Angus, who had no idea she was going to change his life and inspire others to change the country. Based on extensive documentation assembled from Freedom of Information requests, Angus establishes a dark, unbroken line that extends from the policies of John A. Macdonald to the government of today. He provides chilling insight into how Canada--through breaches of treaties, broken promises, and callous neglect--deliberately denied First Nations children their basic human rights."--Provided by publisher.
