Summary:
It is believed that nearly 20,000 Indigenous children have been lost on Turtle Island. The system, fuelled by Church and state, committed the most heinous of crimes: sexually, physically and emotionally abusing children over decades, many of whom died and were buried on the grounds of the schools. Award-winning Anishinaabe author Tanya Talaga retells the history of this country as only she can - through an Indigenous lens, by tracing the life of her great-great grandmother and family as they lived through this government- and Church-sanctioned genocide. Hometown: Toronto, ON. Print run 60,000.
