Description

George Rich's Struggling With My Soul is a story of growing up caught between two worlds. A Labrador Mushuau Innu, George's family and people gave up their nomadic way of life to settle in Davis Inlet. But the promise of a better life in a new place quickly turned to alcoholism, despair and tragedy. He shares some of his thoughts about critical issues such as child welfare and education, as well as the involvement of the Labrador Innu in resource developments and the land claims process. This story is one of a people coming apart and of the hard work it takes to put one's life, one's soul and one's community back together.
