Royal Conservatory of Music | Tanya Talaga: The Knowing
September 23, 2024 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
$60
Award-winning and bestselling Anishinaabe author Talaga launches her new book, The Knowing, in a special Koerner Hall event co-presented with RamsayTalks. Deeply personal and meticulously researched, the book is a seminal unravelling of the centuries-long oppression of Indigenous People that continues to reverberate in these communities today.
Talaga retells the history of Canada as only she can – through an Indigenous lens, beginning with the life of her great-great grandmother Annie Carpenter and her family as they experienced decades of government – and Church – sanctioned enfranchisement and genocide. Ms. Talaga will discuss her book and participate in an interview with Mark Sakamoto, author of Forgiveness: A Gift from My Grandparents.
