Righting Canada's Wrongs : Resource Guide
By The Critical Thinking Consortium
The Righting Canada's Wrongs series is devoted to the exploration of the mostly unknown, and often shocking, stories of the Canadian government's racist actions against various ethnic groups through our history, the fight for acknowledgement and justice, and the eventual apologies and restitution of subsequent governments.
In this Resource Guide you will find seven lessons that will engage your students while they learn about some of the important events in Canada's history that helped shape our current multicultural society. You will find support for teaching about Canada's past treatment of ethnic minorities and how to approach the topic of racism. As well, your students will learn about the important roles that these minorities have played in Canadian society. (description by publisher Lorimer)
