After six children from Davis Inlet, Labrador died in a house fire in 1992,
Innu leaders called for a public inquiry. The federal government refused.
The Innu Nation and the Mushuau Innu Band Council held a people's inquiry
instead, followed a year later by a second project undertaken at the
invitation of the Royal Commission on Aboriginal Peoples. This book
presents the words and the stories that they gathered.
The people of Davis Inlet, which Innu call Utshimassit, have attracted
international attention as they fight for their rights to be restored.
Gathering Voices offers a powerful portrait of a community in crisis and a
compelling argument for its citizen's right to self-determination.
