27 death of Toby Obed

Joanna Gierak-Onoszko's two-year stay in Canada resulted in writing an excellent book entitled "The 27th Death of Toby Obed". It is a report based on the author's own experiences and her numerous conversations with native Canadians. Do you have some idea of Canada? What you learn in this book may change your mind about the country.

A painful history of the country

When you read "The 27 Deaths of Toby Obed", you will most likely get the impression that the stories presented are fictional. Why? It will be hard for you to believe that everything the author writes about is true. Canada is not a land of milk and honey. It is a country with a tragic past, where the offspring of former victims come to the fore.

Joanna Gierak-Onoszko's report is a story about the abuse and exploitation of thousands of people. Perhaps these facts will destroy your model of thinking about this country as an idyllic country where everyone lives great. Only when you do not reach for the book, it will certainly turn out that so far you knew little about the people who inhabited these areas before the era of the "white man".

The struggle for the survival of the children of the First Nations

In her book, the author reveals how Canada was built. Although the whites did not fight the indigenous peoples of these areas in arms, they did lock up tens of thousands of First Nations children in boarding schools. What was happening behind their walls was a painful, bloody page in Canadian history. Get to know her in "The 27 Deaths of Toby Obed".
