$0.80
In Grassroots Justices author Vicki Chartrand examines the models of justice that are rooted in communities’ needs rather than state-imposed ideals by examining the grassroots activism and work being done to help the communities and families of the missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls across Canada. The chapter explores many of the models for Indigenous justice including constellations and networks of support, community patrols, marches, and protectors, the creation of memorials and vigils as healing ceremonies for families and communities of victims left without help from the state, resource sharing and community accountability amongst others.
