Fractured Homeland : Federal Recognition and Algonquin Identity in Ontario, Paperback / softback Book

Fractured Homeland : Federal Recognition and Algonquin Identity in Ontario Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In 1992, the Algonquins of Pikwakanagan, the only federally recognized Algonquin reserve in Ontario, launched a comprehensive land claim.

The action not only drew attention to the fact that Canada had acquired Algonquin land without negotiating a treaty, but it also focused attention on the two-thirds of Algonquins who have never been recognized as Indian.

Fractured Homeland is Bonita Lawrence’s stirring account of how the claim forced federally unrecognized Algonquin in Ontario to confront both the issue of their own identity and the failure of Algonquin leaders – who launched the claim – to develop a more inclusive vision of nationhood.
