Case critical : social services & social justice in Canada

Kennedy-Kish (Bell), Banakonda (author.). Carniol, Ben, (author.). Baines, Donna, 1960- (author.). Sinclair, Raven, (author.).

Summary: This book applies decolonized, critical analysis to highlight what is often hidden from view for most Canadians: the personal trauma and communal devastation inflicted on Indigenous people by past and present colonialism, and how neoliberal tax cuts, austerity and privatization are creating more inequality, homelessness, and despair among both Indigenous and non-Indigenous people. The authors advocate for social service providers to become social activists to de-legitimatize colonial and neoliberal policies by working in solidarity with progressive, grass roots social movements committed to Indigenous Treaty rights, and to economic, environmental, and social justice for everyone.
