Fifteen scholars, activists and community leaders illuminate long-standing gender imbalances within the oral and written historical records that have limited the self-actualization of First Nations women, and offer insight into the tangible work that Aboriginal women perform in community and cultural development."--BOOK JACKET. 000351072 650_0 $$aIndian women$$zCanada$$xSocial conditions. 000351072 650_0 $$aIndian women$$zCanada$$xHistory. 000351072 650_0 $$aWomen in community development$$zCanada. 000351072 650_0 $$aIndian women$$zCanada$$vBiography. 000351072 650_0 $$aResilience (Personality trait) 000351072 7001_ $$aValaskakis, Gail Guthrie. 000351072 7001_ $$aStout, Madeleine Dion. 000351072 7001_ $$aGuimond, Éric. 000351072 85200 $$bgen$$hE98.W8$$iR47$$i2009 000351072 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:351072$$pGLOBAL_SET 000351072 980__ $$aBIB 000351072 980__ $$aBOOK
