Violence Against Canada's Indigenous Women





- By chance I found this short documentary that highlights violence and murder against indigenous women in Canada. This video combines our previous and upcoming topics. Thousands of Indigenous women and girls have gone missing or been murdered across Canada. After 15-year-old Tina Fontaine's body was found at the bottom of a river, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau opened a national inquiry into the epidemic. But many families fear they'll never see justice. Manitoba, where more Indigenous women and girls have gone missing or been murdered than anywhere else in Canada. After years of failure on the part of police and the government, activists here are taking matters into their own hands. In addition, men are involved in these campaigns, which I believe is really important as we can`t isolate men from these issues as they are not women`s struggles, but community issues.
