52 ways to reconcile : how to walk with Indigenous people on the path to healing / David A. Robertson.
"As much as we want to walk the path of reconciliation, we often aren't quite sure what to do, and we're afraid of making mistakes. 52 Ways to Reconcile offers concrete and practical answers, in the form of a friendly and accessible guide. The idea of this book is simple: fifty-two bite-size chapters, each focused on one attainable act of reconciliation. One act per week, for an entire year. These include everything from writing a personal land acknowledgement and buying from Indigenous businesses, to learning about the Sixties Scoop and supporting survivors of the residential school system. With warmth and humour, award-winning public speaker and author David A. Robertson shares stories and tips from his own learning experience. Under his gentle guidance, these fifty-two steps will help readers of all ages to walk in the right direction, towards a healthier relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples"--Page 2 of cover.
