Independence","description":"\u003cp\u003eActivist and scholar Patricia Monture-Angus examines her own intellectual and personal colonization as a way to share ideas about what she  as a Mohawk woman  sees as the next steps on the path to finding a solution to the continued oppression of First Nations people. She is dissatisfied with the circuitous progress with which Aboriginal claims and issues are being dealt with in both Canadian courts and Canadian politics. As well  because many current day First Nations political institutions are framed within and defined by the Indian Act  the author also questions the ability of these organizations to assist in fully eradicating the oppression their citizens. She rejects the idea of self-government (a goal too narrow and overly inundated by colonial meanings to provide a full solution) in favour of a much larger idea-independence. Jouneying Forward is readable  challenging  personal and passionate.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67931858763829,"sku":"ByrdShop_1895686970","price":60.43,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781895686975.jpg?v=1794218101","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/journeying-forward-dreaming-first-nations-independence-9781895686975","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
