Summary: "In this ground-breaking book, Crystal Gail Fraser draws on Dinjii Zhuh (Gwitch'in) concepts of individual and collective fortitude to illuminate student experiences in northern residential schools. Led by survivor testimony, she bears witness to the many ways Indigenous communities resisted the institutionalization of their children to protect their cultures. After 1945, federal bureaucrats and politicians designed policies to destroy Indigenous northerners' ways of life and assimilate them into broader Canadian society. Their aggressive new schooling policy mandated the construction of new residential schools in the North and, in particular, Grollier and Stringer Halls in Inuvik in 1959. By Strength, We Are Still Here shares the lived experiences of Indigenous northerners from 1959 to 1982. Centring the expertise of Knowledge Keepers, Fraser makes a crucial contribution to Indigenous research methodologies and understandings of history in the twentieth century"
