msvenner 's review for:
Indian Horse
by Richard Wagamese
Every Canadian should read this. I think too often the plight of residential school victims falls under the 'not my problem' status for many people. We may not have perpetrated these crime but we are all responsible this land we live upon was stolen and our ancestors tried to commit genocide.
This is a gut-wrenching but amazing book about Saul Indian Horse. Reading his story made me want to hunt down the perpetrators of residential schools and prosecute them for hate crimes, it also made me weep and cheer for the indomitable spirit of Canada's First Nations people who continue to battle the terrible legacy of these places. Saul is relatable and heroic while being human with all its strengths and frailties. Thank you Richard Wagameese for bringing him to life.
