Against the Odds - Drew Ann Wake - Bog

Against the Odds chronicles Thomas R. Berger's significant contributions to Indigenous rights advocacy in Canada and the United States. Mid-career, Berger led the Mackenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry, conducting over thirty community hearings in the Northwest Territories to ensure that First Nations' voices were heard. Later, he also led public hearings on the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. The book includes "Northern Album," a gallery featuring previously unpublished colour photographs of the Dene and Inuvialuit by Michael Jackson KC and Linda MacCannell. Seen here is a portrait of Bella T'Seleie.
