Book Club Session 1
Event Details
Join us for the first session of the Learning Forward B.C. Online Book Club, featuring The Valley of the Birdtail by Andrew Stobo Sniderman and Douglas Sanderson (2022).
This award-winning book follows generations of two families—one Indigenous from the Waywayseecappo Indian Reserve and one white from Rossburn, Manitoba. It tells a powerful story that reflects the challenges in relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities while offering a hopeful vision of reconciliation in practice.
As Michael Ignatieff describes, “This is a magnificent book… a new history of Canada, as lived in two communities who shared the same valley but never shared the same reality.”
