Increasingly under scrutiny, non-Indigenous perceptions of the Beothuk have had especially dire and far-reaching ramifications for contemporary Indigenous people in Newfoundland and Labrador. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eTracing Ochre\u003c\/i\u003e reassesses popular beliefs about the Beothuk. Placing the group in global context, Fiona Polack and a diverse collection of contributors juxtapose the history of the Beothuk with the experiences of other Indigenous peoples outside of Canada, including those living in former British colonies as diverse as Tasmania, South Africa, and the islands of the Caribbean. Featuring contributions of Indigenous and non-Indigenous thinkers from a wide range of scholarly and community backgrounds, \u003ci\u003eTracing Ochre\u003c\/i\u003e aims to definitively shift established perceptions of a people who were among the first to confront European colonialism in North America.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Fiona Polack\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/10\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 400\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781442628427\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003ePolack, Fiona:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eFiona Polack\u003c\/b\u003e is an associate professor in the Department of English at Memorial University.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"University of Toronto Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44993704198259,"sku":"9781442628427","price":84.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_69431086-8547-40af-b099-f98ea7785b3e.jpg?v=1778871733","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/tracing-ochre-changing-perspectives-on-the-beothuk-9781442628427","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
