This book provides an understanding of the Aboriginal resistence movement and the armed occupation at Oka. Part one focuses on the experiences of participants, both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal, in the Temagami blockades in 1988-89 as well as to a lesser degree, in Oka in 1990. Part Two reviews themes of resistance in their historical context, and examples from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries are analyzed to develop those themes. Part three analyzes contemporary aspects of resistence, including resistence in the justice system, the courts and Aboriginal title, education and literature.
