Arthur Manuel

Ronald M. Derrickson

Rate this:
Arthur Manuel discusses how the government should address the basic colonial structures that dominate and distort the relationship with Indigenous peoples before reconciliation can occur. He looks at the current state of land claims, the persistence of racism among non-Indigenous people and institutions, decries the role of government-funded organizations like the Assembly of First Nations, and highlights the government's disregard for the substance of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples. He offers his vision of what is needed for true reconciliation.
