Finding Dawn illustrates the deep historical, social and economic factors that contribute to the epidemic of violence against Native women in this country. It goes further to present the ultimate message that stopping the violence is everyone’s responsibility.
Walk 4 Justice are brave women and their supporters who are walking from Vancouver to Ottawa to bring awareness to the issue of missing and murdered Aboriginal women and force the government to take action.
In the last decade over 3,000 women have gone missing, 80% of whom are Aboriginal.
