About
Gladys Radek
Gladys Radek is a human rights activist originally from the Gitxsan Wet’suwet’en territory in northern British Columbia, known as the Highway of Tears. Gladys’s niece, Tamara Lynn Chipman, disappeared out of Prince Rupert, BC, in 2005. In response, Gladys co-founded the grassroots organization Walk4Justice in 2008 to bring the families affected by MMIWG together. Gladys’s efforts played a significant role in the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls. Today, she continues to raise awareness about MMIWG and advocates for governments to act on the 231 Calls to Justice from the inquiry.
