About this listen
In this vital and incisive work, best-selling and award-winning author Tanya Talaga explores the alarming rise of youth suicide in Indigenous communities in Canada and beyond. From Northern Ontario to Nunavut, Norway, Brazil, Australia, and the United States, the Indigenous experience in colonized nations is startlingly similar and deeply disturbing. It is an experience marked by the violent separation of Peoples from the land, the separation of families, and the separation of individuals from traditional ways of life - all of which has culminated in a spiritual separation that has had an enduring impact on generations of Indigenous children. As a result of this colonial legacy, too many communities today lack access to the basic determinants of health - income, employment, education, a safe environment, health services - 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, from the Occupation of Alcatraz led by the Indians of All Tribes, to the Northern Ontario Stirland Lake Quiet Riot, to the Standing Rock protests against the Dakota Access Pipeline, which united Indigenous Nations from across Turtle Island in solidarity.
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.

Like thousands of Aboriginal children in the United States, Canada, and elsewhere in the colonized world, Xatsu'll chief Bev Sellars spent part of her childhood as a student in a church-run residential school. These institutions endeavored to "civilize" Native children through Christian teachings; forced separation from family, language, and culture; and strict discipline. In this frank and poignant memoir of her years at St. Joseph's Mission, Sellars breaks her silence about the residential school's lasting effects on her and her family and eloquently articulates her own path to healing.

In 1966, 12-year-old Chanie Wenjack froze to death on the railway tracks after running away from residential school. An inquest was called, and four recommendations were made to prevent another tragedy. None of those recommendations were applied. More than a quarter of a century later, from 2000 to 2011, seven Indigenous high school students died in Thunder Bay, Ontario. The seven were hundreds of miles away from their families, forced to leave home and live in a foreign and unwelcoming city.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 103
Totalitarianism is not a coincidence and does not form in a vacuum. It arises from a collective psychosis that has followed a predictable script throughout history. In The Psychology of Totalitarianism, world-renowned Professor of Clinical Psychology Mattias Desmet deconstructs the societal conditions that allow this collective psychosis to take hold. By looking at our current situation and identifying the phenomenon of “mass formation”—a type of collective hypnosis—he clearly illustrates how close we are to surrendering to totalitarian regimes.

Indigenous history
The facts behind this book need to be a part of the history taught in Canadian schools. Not something the average Canadian would be proud of.

Weaved in all together
The author weaves harsh truths and resiliency beautifully in this book. A great read for anyone beginning their journey in understanding Canada's true history or for someone who wants to add to their knowledge. The way that the first story continues to be weaved throughout the story shows just how much everything is interconnected. Miigwetch for these teachings.

There are lots of important works in the world.
If you care about justice (and more importantly injustice) this work should ascend to the top of your list.
Well written (and read); All Our Relations is a cogent reminder of some of most egregious harms visited upon aboriginal peoples around the globe through the early times down to present day.
Not since Bury My Heart.. have I been as moved.
May this work serve to help readers see all of us as brothers and sisters without exception.

Important to All Canadians
Every Canadian should read or listen to this book. it does a great job of presenting the facts and insights into why so many first nations people have lost their way.
We stole their children away. We tried to kill the indian inside, stole their language, took away their clothing, their parents, everything. Starved them, beat them, and in some cases even raped and murdered them.
Can a person know how to be a parent when they had no parents to show them how it is done? how can they have a whole and loving family of their own when they never had one when they were little?
Took away their rights to exist on the land, their knowledge of how to survive and thrive. Made them dependent upon white mans foods then used that to control and starve them.
Nobody has a right to call themselves a Canadian until they have educated themselves on this shameful history we all share.
I am angry. Beyond angry, really. This is why they hate white people. This is why they hurt us, hurt one another, hurt themselves. We owe it to them all to find out how we can begin to repair this awful damage.
