The Faculty of Social Sciences celebrates the publication of Professor Cyndy Wylde's first essay, entitled Émergence insoumise : Réflexions sur la persistance du racisme systémique envers les femmes autochtones. The book is a powerful testament to the author's deep commitment to Aboriginal women.

Originally from the Pikogan community in Abitibi-Témiscamingue, Professor Wylde, an Anicinape and Atikamekw woman, grew up in a large family, an environment that nurtured her Aboriginal identity. From an early age, she was confronted with the realities of racism and discrimination, forging her determination to fight for social justice. A seasoned expert on Aboriginal issues, she has over 25 years' experience with the Correctional Service of Canada and Aboriginal organizations.

Émergence insoumiseis rooted in her personal experience of the injustices suffered by aboriginal women. Through her book, Professor Wylde shares not only her story, but also that of thousands of other aboriginal women who aspire to a better future.
