Reconciliation Reading Group

Join us for the third meeting of the Reconciliation Reading Group, our ongoing project to promote informed action toward Reconciliation.

We will discuss "When the Pine Needles Fall: Indigenous Acts of Resistance" by Katsi’tsakwas Ellen Gabriel with Sean Carlton: a chronicle by Gabriel, the Haudenosaunee spokesperson “and one of the most important Land Defenders of our time,” of the so-called Oka Crisis, Canada’s violent siege of Kanehsatà:ke and Kahnawà:ke in the summer of 1990.

You can find more information about the book on the publisher's website: https://btlbooks.com/book/when-the-pine-needles-fall

All are welcome to join us at Macaulay House (35 Church Street, Picton) on November 12 from 6:30 – 8:30. Ideally participants will have read the book.

This is a free-of-charge community event jointly sponsored and hosted by County Museums and The Prince Edward County Public Library. This month’s discussion is co-facilitated by Jessica Chase and Jane Macdonald.
