Aboriginal Title, No Surrender follows Manuel through his late youth and early adulthood as he met his wife, began to grow his family, and attended university and later law school. The chapter explores his time in university, his experiences with academia and his continued work in the larger struggle for Indigenous autonomy and self-determination, and the work he undertook to try to entrench Indigenous rights into constitutional law.
