| Resumo: | Léa Roback (1903–2000), who was my great-aunt, was well known
for her seven decades of activist work in Quebec, especially her
union and women’s rights activism. This biography provides
readers with an opportunity to read about Roback’s activist life
and work from the perspective of one of her great-nieces, who
is an activist herself. At a time when the geopolitical moment
has produced polarized views and a lack of dialogue, Roback’s
ability to cross linguistic, religious, cultural, and class borders – in
order to work towards social justice needs to be documented
and shared. The biography will be of interest to educators and
social justice activists around the world. |
