SUMMARY:David Bedford – Socialism and the Indigenous Struggle for Justice
DESCRIPTION:Socialist Project Fredericton invites all to the workshop –\nDavid Bedford: Socialism and the Indigenous Struggle for Justice\nTuesday, October 27 at 7:00 to 8:30 PM\nConserver House, 180 St. John Street in Fredericton\nIntroductory remarks by Andrea Bear Nicholas.\nThe struggle of Indigenous people for justice, like the struggle for all peoples for justice in contemporary Canada, must take the nature of capitalism into account. This includes an examination of the Canadian state’s undermining of First Nations’ spirituality, its systematic dismantling of their mode of governance, its attack on the forms of social organization, and its undermining of the traditional Aboriginal economy.\nDavid Bedford was Professor of Political Science at the University of New Brunswick until his retirement in 2019. He has written extensively on the struggle for justice for Indigenous people including his book: The Tragedy of Progress: Marxism, Modernity, and the Aboriginal Question (Fernwood Publishing).\nAndrea Bear Nicholas, Professor Emerita, Native Studies at St. Thomas University, is author of Bilijk: A Documentary History of Kingsclear First Nation, 1783-1950 (Goose Lane Editions, 2026).\n
