Illustrating the various \"arrows in a quiver\" that Indigenous people use to fight back, such as grassroots organizing, political engagement, and the courts, Frideres situates \"settler colonialism\" historically and explains why decolonization requires a fundamental transformation of long-standing government policy for reconciliation to occur. The historical, political, and social context provided by this text offers greater understanding and theorizes what the effective devolution of government power might look like. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"A useful introduction to Indigenous issues, especially for post-secondary students in Canada.\" --Jonathan Dewar, co-editor of \u003ci\u003eCultivating Canada: Reconciliation through the Lens of Cultural Diversity\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James Frideres, Randy Lundy, Mary Soderstrom\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0889776784\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780889776784\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Regina Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/23\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.00w x 0.80d","brand":"James Frideres","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43926777233663,"sku":"9780889776784","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_82244ad9-8dc1-4977-adb2-1297a1cc56ac.jpg?v=1681084949","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/arrows-in-a-quiver-james-frideres-9780889776784","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
