Sterritt will be speaking about her debut memoir Unbroken at Books & Company’s Artspace
Acclaimed Gitxsan journalist Angela Sterritt will be stopping in Prince George to speak about her debut memoir Unbroken, which is both her own story and a work of investigative journalism about Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls.
She noted that having these conversations is incredibly important, as only two recommendations out of the 230 from the national Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls have been completed.As well as visiting Artspace in Prince George on June 24 for a conversation with CBC journalist Betsy Trumpener, Sterritt will also be visiting her home territory during a stop at the Hazelton Public library on June 21.
“My elder and also my cousin, Jane Smith, translated all the chapter titles for me and so she's going to be at the events in Hazleton and then I'm really hoping that the event in Prince George with Betsy Trumpener will shed light on the strength people of Lheidli T'enneh not just on the trauma,” said Sterritt.
