Red River Girl: The Life and Death of Tina Fontaine by Joanna JollyMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This was an engrossing account of the possible life and death of Tina Fontaine, an indigenous teenaged Canadian female. Heartbreaking and ultimately disappointing, it introduces the reader to the ongoing assault against indigenous females in Canada, which, according the book and some online commentary, continues to be swept aside as unimportant. Tina Fontaine's story inspired more activism and appears to continue to be borne as the flag for the undefended, dead, indigenous females in Canada. My prayers are with you.
