Summary
"Remembering Women Murdered by Men is a compelling tribute to the lives of women murdered across Canada and to the memorial-makers whose courage and conviction ensure that these women are not forgotten. This public record of feminist remembrance is the first to document over 30 of these memorials, each created and built against great odds by feminist communities across the country. From Vancouver to Halifax, women are using active remembrance to protest the ongoing violence against women. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.
