Bev Sellars in Vancouver this week

Price Paid is newly published, and author Bev Sellars is in town!

Join her tomorrow evening to celebrate the launch of her highly anticipated new book, Price Paid: The Fight for First Nations Survival. Hear how North America’s Indigenous peoples have contributed to the rest of the world; uncover the dark period of regulation by racist laws during the twentieth century; and explore how Indigenous land and resource rights are being re-established today. Following her groundbreaking and award-winning debut, They Called Me Number One, Sellars offers a personal, candid and eye-opening clarification of misconceptions still widely believed about First Nations people. The event takes place on Thursday, September 22 at 7:30 p.m. at the Norman Rothstein Theatre (950 West 41st Avenue) in Vancouver, British Columbia. Tickets are still available through Theatre Wire.

Then, tomorrow, join Bev for a discussion about the history of Indigenous activism in Canada and her new book. The event takes place at 3 p.m. on the afternoon of Friday, September 23 at the Central Branch of the Vancouver Public Library. Find this event on the VPL website.
