Indigenous Sovereignty and Socialism Book Launch
January 31, 2019
The relationship between Marxism and the struggle for Indigenous rights has been fraught for many decades, often falling back on a crude economic determinism and ignoring the strong tradition of national liberation at the core of socialism. As well, socialists have downplayed the Indigenous traditions of democracy and equality and ignoring the work of Indigenous activists and writers.
Join us for the launch of a pamphlet that hopes to aims to document Indigenous culture before and after the creation of the Canadian state, celebrate the inspiring resistance to colonialism and assimilation and showcase the relevance of socialist ideas in understanding and informing struggles to come.
Featuring Chief Myeengun Henry of the Chippewas of the Thames First Nation.
Time: 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Venue: Another Story Bookshop
Location: 315 Roncesvalles Ave Toronto, ON
