- Summary:
- ANNA MAE AQUASH, a Mi'kmaq Indian born in poverty in Nova Scotia, lost her mother and was on her own as a young teen. A resilient and independent girl, she fought for justice for Native Americans, and in fact turned down a college scholarship to continue to help her people. Ultimately, Anna Mae became a powerful organizer with AIM, the American Indian Movement, but she was killed under mysterious circumstances that remain controversial today. Writer Lucy Wang tells us the story of this fierce and dedicated woman.
