All Our Relations: Finding the Path Forward
by Tanya Talaga
October 1 – 31, 2024
In this urgent and incisive work, bestselling and award-winning author Tanya Talaga explores the alarming rise of youth suicide in Indigenous communities in Canada and beyond. Because of colonialism’s legacy, too many communities today lack access to the basic determinants of health, leading to a mental health and youth suicide crisis on a global scale. But, Talaga reminds us, First Peoples also share a history of resistance, resilience, and civil rights activism.
Based on her Atkinson Fellowship in Public Policy series, All Our Relations is a powerful call for action, justice, and a better, more equitable world for all Indigenous Peoples. This title was a First Nation Communities READ longlist selection for 2019-2020.
