Notes


In The Knowing, author Tanya Talaga offers a re-examination of Canadian history through an Indigenous perspective. Drawing on her own family’s experiences—beginning with her great-great-grandmother, Annie Carpenter—Talaga traces the intergenerational trauma caused by residential schools, “Indian hospitals,” and policies aimed at erasing Indigenous identity. Through rigorous historical research, she exposes the enduring legacy of systemic violence against First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people.
