We Remember the Coming of the White Man: Special Edition in Recognition of the 100th Anniversary of the Signing of Treaty 11

Raymond Yakeleya,Elizabeth Yakeleya,Simon Sarah,Leanne Goose

SPECIAL 2021 EDITION, recognizing the 100th Anniversary of Signing of Treaty 11. We Remember the Coming of the White Man chronicles the history of the Sahtu (Mountain Dene) and Gwinch'in People in the extraordinary time of the early 20th century. This 2021 Special Edition of the book recognizes the anniversary of the signing of Treaty 11, which is greatly controversial due to the emotional and economic fallout for the People. As well as poignant essays about Treaty 11, the book includes transcripts of oral histories by Elders. They talk about the early days of fur trading and guns; the flu pandemic; and dismay about the way oil and uranium discoveries and pipelines were handled on their land. A new section of stories is included as well – stories by Leanne Goose, Antoine Mountain, Raymond Yakeleya, and George Blondin. The remastered film We Remember, is included with the book, on DVD and as digital Vimeo links. https: //durvile.com/books/We_Remember_Special.html
