Mkadengwe : Sharing Canada's Colonial Process through Black Face Methodology
Lynn Gehl (Author)
This book starts with a discussion of the methodology relied upon - Mkadengwe, which translates to Black Face - and a collection of twenty-six short chapters on the land claims and self-government process as well as the sex discrimination in the Indian Act regarding Indian status. It highlights the intersection of ongoing colonial policy, Indian status registration, First Nation band membership, First Nation citizenship, and the land claims and self-government process. There are also two interludes of photographs featuring the twenty year anniversary protest of Bill C-31 and the 2010 Marche AMUN protest of Bill C-3. The author shares her final thoughts on what she has learned in her twenty-seven year process of participating in and observing the Algonquin of Ontario land claims process and the two remedial legislative changes to the Indian Act in 1985 and 2011
