As we begin the 21 Things You May Not Know About The Indian Act Virtual Pilgrimage, Rev. John Borthwick (Minister, St. Andrew's Guelph - www.standrewsguelph.com) shares some thoughts on the WHY of journeying with this particular book.

St. Andrew's Guelph and Rev. John are committed to "doing the work" of anti-racism and seek ways of bringing attention to the issues that matter. While this is a personal journey for Rev. John, he hopes that others will join him using these reflections as a companion piece to savouring the reading of Bob Joseph's book.

Please purchase a copy of the book, 21 Things You May Not Know About The Indian Act where you buy books (hopefully a local bookseller in your community).
