About the event

Prince George launch of By Strength, We Are Still Here
Join Crystal Gail Fraser on Friday, October 3 for the Prince George book launch of By Strength, We Are Still Here at the Books & Company Book Nook!

Winner of the Best First Book Award from the Native American and Indigenous Studies Association, the Canadian Historical Association's Best Scholarly Book in Canadian History Prize, and the Canadian Historical Association's CLIO North History Prize, By Strength, We Are Still Here illuminates student experiences in northern residential schools, revealing the many ways Indigenous communities resisted the institutionalization of their children. Led by Survivor testimony, Fraser shows the roles both students and their families played in disrupting state agendas, including questioning and changing the system to protect their cultures and communities.

Crystal Gail Fraser is Gwichyà Gwich'in and has Scottish and English ancestry. Originally from Inuvik and Dachan Choo Gę̀hnjik (Tree River), Northwest Territories, Crystal works as a historian and Indigenous studies scholar in the amiskwacîwâskahikan (Edmonton) region, on Treaty 6 and Métis Lands.
