Description
Hope, Faith & Empathy is the story of Tilly, a young Indigenous woman growing up in Canada, and the individuals who helped shape her life, her survival and her irrepressible spirit. Together, they tell a unique perspective of the history of the First Peoples in Canada; including the Sixties Scoop, Indigenous adoption, Indian Day Schools, Residential Schools and tuberculosis hospitals. They share stories of homecomings rooted in courage and resiliency. Woven throughout the book are thought provoking teachings, humour, and wisdom. Hope, Faith and Empathy is relevant, insightful and inspiring to both Indigenous and Non Indigenous readers; including readers outside of Canada.
