Indigenous Women, Work, and History: 1940-1980 - McCallum, Mary Jane Logan

Clean, tight, unmarked; absolute minimal wear; appears unread; McCallum presents case studies of Indigenous domestic servants, hairdressers, community health representatives, and nurses working in "modern Native ways" between 1940 and 1980. By placing the history of these modern workers within a broader historical context of Aboriginal education and health, federal labour programs, postwar Aboriginal economic and political developments, and Aboriginal professional organizations. She challenges us to thing about Indigenous women's history in entirely new ways.
