Learning from the past : five cases of aboriginal justice

Summary: This book traces five cases of Canadian Aboriginal people that faced injustice in the Canadian justice system: Helen Betty Osborne, J. J. Harper, Minnie Sutherland, Neil Stonechild and Donald Marshall Jr. Each case has had an inquest, inquiry or even a royal commission dedicated to identifying the wrong done, with suggestions for change. This book takes each case a few steps farther. The stories will be told. The wrongs were identified and suggestions for change were made. This book reveals what has happened since the investigations, good and bad. This casebook can be used to supplement undergraduate courses on Canadian Justice Studies, Criminology, Diversity and Inequality.
