A Brief History of Centralization

Story by Shiri Pasternak.

Illustrations by Brandon Mitchell, Mig'maq, Listuguj.

Description from the website: "As part of the Cash Back project, this comic graphically illustrates a painful experiment the Department of Indian Affairs enacted on the Mik’maq and Maliseet nations. For the purpose of economic efficiency and to remove the First Nations from white sight, in the 1940s these Indigenous communities were uprooted from their villages and placed on four central reserves in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The results were disastrous and genocidal and the experiment was quietly ended by the end of the 1950s. "
