This oral autobiography of two remarkable Cree women tells their
life stories against a backdrop of government discrimination, First
Nations activism, and the resurgence of First Nations communities.
Nellie Carlson and Kathleen Steinhauer, who helped to organize the
Indian Rights for Indian Women movement in western Canada in the
1960s, fought the Canadian government's interpretation of treaty
and Aboriginal rights, the Indian Act, and the male power structure
in their own communities in pursuit of equal rights for Aboriginal
women and children. After decades of activism and court battles,
First Nations women succeeded in changing these oppressive
regulations, thus benefitting thousands of their descendants. Those
interested in human rights, activism, history, and Native Studies
will find that these personal stories, enriched by detailed notes
and photographs, form a passionate record of an important,
continuing struggle.
