This presentation sits between Dr. Sarah's existing research on the Union of BC Indian Chiefs and her next book on Indigenous women's activism in Canada's west. It traces the formation and activities of an ad hoc group, the Concerned Aboriginal Women, who staged an occupation of the Vancouver Indian Affairs office in July 1981.
