Attempts to \u201cget rid of the Indian problem\u201d have failed. The future is coming. A howl of pain rips across the land in Etlinisigu\u2019niet as traditional life gives way to Indigenous peoples being starved to ensure compliance with government orders. Children forced from their families and penned into the horrors of residential school. Men, women and children examined like livestock in crowded tuberculosis clinics, where policies that could have prevented thousands of deaths were willfully suppressed, resulting in the highest death tolls from the disease ever reported anywhere in the world. And the land and water continue to be poisoned for industry and profit at the cost of Indigenous lives. Tanya Tagaq\u2019s \u201cTulugak\u201d carries the voice of the land through Barnaby\u2019s poem of rage.<\/p>\n
