Book cover for The Long Sixties: Stories from the New Left edited by Jim Harding (Fernwood): Inspiring stories from seven Canadians who have spent sixty plus years fighting for social justice and transformative change. This book provides hope, chronicling the significant gains — in advancing peace, international human rights, Indigenous rights, women’s and 2SLGBTQ+ rights, workers’ rights, and environmental protection. Weathered voices open an intergenerational conversation about social solidarity and transformation to address the grave crises we face globally and nationally, including climate catastrophe, escalating warfare, extreme wealth inequality, ethno-nationalism, and a heightened continental threat to Canada’s sovereignty. With inspiring contributions from Bob Bossin, Joan Kuyek, Dimitri Roussopoulos, Lib Spry, Cathy Walker, Peter Warrian and Jim Harding. https://fernwoodpublishing.ca/book/the-long-sixties
