Paying the Land

Fantastic documentary graphic novel giving voice to the Dene people of Canada's Northwest. A history of stealing land, of stealing kids, of erasing culture, of damaging a people and a people's resilience, which once was their ultimate strength. There's hope in here too. But it always feels so hard to hold onto that, when confronted with the downward spiral that yesterday's colonization and today's resource extraction have inflicted upon the original inhabitants.
