Description

An exhaustive volume of leading scholarship in the field of Black Canadian history, Unsettling the Great White North highlights the diverse experiences of persons of African descent within the chronicles of Canada's past. The book considers histories and theoretical framings within the disciplines of history, sociology, law, and cultural and gender studies to chart the mechanisms of exclusion and marginalization in "multicultural" Canada and to situate Black Canadians as speakers and agents of their own lives. Working to interrupt the myth of benign whiteness that has been deeply implanted into the country's imagination, Unsettling the Great White North uncovers new narratives of Black life in Canada.

Reviews

"Under the stewardship of Johnson and Aladejebi, Unsettling the Great White North provides an important and necessary scholarly intervention that recognizes Black agency in Canadian history and will certainly serve as a guiding anthology for both classrooms and the public in how we think about Canada."
