Witness to the Human Rights Tribunals: How the System Fails Indigenous Peoples

Witness to the Human Rights Tribunals is a groundbreaking book that provides an in-depth analysis of Canada's human rights tribunal system through the lens of Indigenous justice.

Drawing on years of tribunal decisions, ethnographic data, and testimony, this book reveals the double-edged nature of the tribunal itself, which both re-engages with the trauma and violence of discrimination while attempting to protect human rights.

The author's candid analysis convincingly concludes that any reform must consider the problem of symbolic trauma before Indigenous claimants can receive appropriate justice.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the complex issues surrounding Indigenous justice and human rights in Canada.
