Unbroken : my fight for survival, hope, and justice for Indigenous women and girls

Sterritt, Angela.


Includes bibliographical references (pages 245-268) and index. Adaawk, oral history -- Nee dii sgithl ts'ixts'ik loo'y, I don't have a vehicle -- K'emk'emelay, the place of many maple trees -- Nilhchuk-un, those who take us away -- Nucwstimu, quiet -- Gidi guutxwdiit seegidit, caught a killer -- 'Et'doonekh, it might happen -- Ninchims, to question someone -- 'Mnsaksit gilelix, going on top -- Hilakanthl ayookhl lixs gyat, breaker of laws of others. In her brilliant debut, Sterritt shares her memoir alongside investigative reporting into cases of missing and murdered Indigenous women in Canada, showing how colonialism and racism led to a society where Sterritt struggled to survive as a young person, and where the lives of Indigenous women and girls are ignored and devalued. “She could have been me,” Sterritt acknowledges today, and her empathy for victims, survivors, and families drives her present-day investigations into the lives of missing and murdered Indigenous women. In the end, Sterritt steps into a place of power, demanding accountability from the media and the public, exposing racism, and showing that there is much work to do on the path towards understanding the truth. But most importantly, she proves that the strength and brilliance of Indigenous women is unbroken, and that together, they can build lives of joy and abundance.
