  • Abstract Memorializing Individuals, Seeking Justice
    ABSTRACT MEMORIALIZING INDIVIDUALS, SEEKING JUSTICE FOR COMMUNITIES: THE EPIDEMIC OF SYSTEMIC VIOLENCE AGAINST INDIGENOUS PEOPLES AND THE ROLE OF ART AND PUBLIC RESPONSE IN BRINGING ABOUT SOCIAL CHANGE By Amanda Ferris Frederico May, 2016 Director of Thesis: Dr. Jessica Bardill, Ph.D. DEPARTMENT OF ENGLISH Indigenous peoples throughout the Americas are often targets of violence stemming from settler colonial societies that would position Indigenous peoples on the outskirts of mainstream, often Eurocentric societies. For Indigenous people, the systemic violence against them works to erase all Indigenous identities from dominant non-Indigenous societies. Even as Indigenous identities in general are targets of systemic violence, there are two subgroups within a larger Indigenous community that are targeted for violence more often than the overall Indigenous community –Indigenous women and those individuals who identify in ways that deviate from the dominant society’s preferred heteronormative and gender-binary identities. Queer Indigenous people and Indigenous women represent the minority of a minority who are hunted in an effort to erase their divergent identities entirely. Through the examination of prose, film, poetry and social movements, I will address the question of how these Indigenous peoples can begin to recover from this systematic violence against two of their subpopulations through the creation of memorials to the victims. Through memorialization, Indigenous populations return power and agency to these victims and continue a quest for justice that will offer psychological healing for victims, their families, and a larger Indigenous population. Through the process of memorializing the divergent and individual identities of these victims of sexuality, gender, and gender expression driven violence, art and social media begin the process of obtaining justice through rediscovering and revalidating these identities.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT The Highway of Tears is a local term that refers to a stretch of highway in northern British Columbia where an estimated 18 to 35 women and girls have disappeared or have been found murdered since the 1960s (Culbert and Hall 2009). Drawing on feminist approaches to security and International Relations, this thesis explores the concepts of security and insecurity in the case of the Highway of Tears. I use critical discourse analysis to answer the following question: How are the concepts of security and insecurity represented in the discourse of select media related to the Highway of Tears? It was seen that each narrator framed and located security and insecurity differently.

  • An Analysis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls in Canada
    Social Denial: An Analysis of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls in Canada Rebecca Bychutsky A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the University of Ottawa for the Master’s Degree in Sociology © Rebecca Bychutsky, Ottawa, Canada, 2017 Dedication To those Indigenous women and girls who are missing and forever lost. And to those who work tirelessly to find them. Acknowledgements With sincere gratitude, I acknowledge the support and assistance of Willow Scobie and Karine Vanthuyne. Their willingness to participate in the construction of this thesis is deeply appreciated. Also, I am forever grateful for the contributions made by José López. His time, thoughts, and guidance throughout this process have been invaluable. It is a privilege to have received the unyielding support of my parents and siblings. My parents, Rachael and Vadim, taught me to critically reflect and pursue justice. They inspire me in all the work I do – to them I owe every gratitude. Most notably, I would not have completed this work if it was not for the constant encouragement I received from Shawn Betel. His earnest passion for education and critical discussion challenges me to create work I am proud of. I thank him for keeping me happy, for keeping me sane, and for accompanying me on walks with the dog. ii Abstract Key words: Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG), Social Denial, Indigenous women, News Media Understood sociologically, denial is best conceptualized as a social practice. As a phenomenon, social denial refers to patterned behaviour where actors both know and do not-know about uncomfortable truths (Cohen, 2001).

When we think to the future, we consider the legacy we will leave for those who come after us: our children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, and other young people for generations to come. One of the best legacies we can leave them is an education that will help prevent violence and keep Indigenous women and girls safe so that they can all flourish. Together, we can create a society in which all Indigenous lives are valued. By taking collective responsibility for safety, and by educating Canadians about the sys- temic causes of violence against Indigenous women and girls, we can effect real change. We believe in the power of youth voices and in the agency of Indigenous women and girls. Indigenous women and girls have a right to feel safe in their homes and communities and wherever they live across the country. They have human rights that must be upheld so that they can achieve their dreams and use their gifts, talents, and skills to benefit their families, communities, and all of Canada.

  • Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women in Canadian Crime Films by Katelyn Mackenzie a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of Graduate
    Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women in Canadian Crime Films by Katelyn Mackenzie A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts Department of Sociology and Criminology University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2018 by Katelyn Mackenzie ABSTRACT The issue of Murdered and Missing Indigenous Women (MMIW) in Canada has been prevalent for several decades. It has recently gained, and continues to gain, public awareness, and media have played an important role. A number of recent Canadian crime films have focused on MMIW and it is important to look at cinematic representations because they offer unique frames for viewing and interpreting the issue of MMIW. The research questioned how MMIW are represented as victims in four Canadian crime documentary films about MMIW. Employing a visual and narrative analysis, informed by the language of film, the research was conducted using a step-by-step viewing process, repeatedly watching the films, while watching for new details in each viewing. The films revealed themes that presented MMIW in complex and contradictory ways, and as victims of broader social injustices, rather than as victims of a particular crime. i Acknowledgements I would like to thank several people for their support and guidance during my thesis research. My thesis supervisor Dr. Sonia Bookman who inspired this research. Dr. Bookman provided feedback on ideas and drafts of my thesis for nearly a year, and was always available to brainstorm. Her guidance, expertise and encouragement have been invaluable. I would also like to thank Dr.

  • Community Resource Guide What Can I Do to Help the Families of Missing and Murdered Aboriginal Women and Girls?
    The national voice of Aboriginal women since 1974. Community Resource Guide What Can I Do to Help the Families of Missing and Murdered Aboriginal Women and Girls? What Can I Do to Help the Families of Missing and Murdered Aboriginal Women and Girls? 1 Dear Friends and Supporters, The Sisters In Spirit initiative proudly presents the new Community Resource Guide (CRG). Your organization has received this guide to accompany the great work that you or your organization does in the Aboriginal community to help prevent violence against Aboriginal women and girls. In March, 2010 the Native Women’s Association of Canada (NWAC) released a report called “What Their Stories Tell Us”. The report was a culmination of research from the past five years of the Sisters In Spirit initiative and has provided evidence of more than 582 Aboriginal women and girls who have gone missing or been murdered in Canada. Over the past five years, Sisters In Spirit has also held a series of family gatherings which included some of the family members and relations of the 582 missing and murdered Aboriginal women to hear their recommendations and requirements for support and safety. One such gathering yielded the need for a CRG that would centralize most of the sources, programming and campaigns together for: friendships centres; community centres; teachers; educators; and, Aboriginal youth and women to use in violence prevention, advocacy, capacity building and promoting healthy relationships from an Aboriginal perspective. We encourage you to utilize the information in the CRG as it echoes the voice of the many families that came together and consulted on the issues that affects the safety of Aboriginal women and girls directly.
