Dr. Glen Coulthard recently visited Halifax located in unceded Miâkmaw territory on January 12th and 13th, 2012.
Couthard is a member of the Yellowknives Dene and a scholar of contemporary Indigenous politics and political thought. He is an Assistant Professor in First Nations Studies and the Department of Political Science at the University of British Colombia in Vancouver, Coast Salish Territory.
He is a founding member of the Camas Books & Infoshop in Victoria and the Dechinta Center for Research and Learning in Yellowknives Dene territory and a member of the Frank Paul society. Coulthard has also participated in the Purple Thistle Institute.
The second of two talks he gave during his visit is called âSeeing Red: Recognition, Reconciliation and Resentment in Indigenous Politics.â It combines Indigenous and European political philosophies to argue that the present efforts by the Canadian government towards reconciliation and redress with Indigenous people, such as the ongoing Truth and Reconciliation Commission to address the legacy of the Residential Schools Program, fail to resolve many substantive issues. He suggests that Indigenous peopleâs anger at past and present injustices can be a socially transformative force for both Indigenous and non-Indigenous communities in Canada.

These talks were organized by the Halifax Radical Imagination Project in conjunction with Fernwood Publishing, the Dalhousie Platypus Society, the Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology at Dalhousie University, and the Department of Sociology and Anthropology at Mount Saint Vincent University.
