Description
Book SynopsisInvested Indifference exposes the tenacity of violence against Indigenous people, arguing that some lives are made to matter or not depending on their relation to the settler-colonial nation state.
Trade ReviewGranzow has produced a must-read book on Canada’s murdered and disappeared indigenous women… This book is highly recommended, as it will surely lead to excellent discussions and insights into issues of continued colonization.
