Description

The supposed extinction of the Beothuk people in Newfoundland has had a lasting impact on Canadian history. This reassessment challenges prevailing perceptions and provides a new perspective on the group's place within global Indigenous experiences. Tracing Ochre juxtaposes the Beothuk with other Indigenous peoples from diverse regions, including Tasmania, South Africa, and the Caribbean, to redefine established views of this pivotal people who confronted European colonialism in North America.
