Description

The authors use documentary sources and statements by members of the Yellowknives Dene First Nation before various public hearings to probe the history of arsenic pollution at Giant Mine. They interpret this history as a form of “slow violence” and a historical agent of colonial dispossession of their territorial territories for the members of this indigenous group.
