The cold-blooded slaughter of humans in the Holocaust must never be lost to the marching of time. In the Arrow Lakes region of British Columbia, Canada, individuals with ties to the Nazi era-some born during the war and others after-adopted new identities, cleverly altering one or two letters of their birth or last names. Living inconspicuously, they managed to stay beneath the radar. Hidden Behind the Mist of Arrow Lakes unfolds a courageous historical account, weaving together the intricate web of connections between Russia, England, Germany, and Canada-a tapestry that binds the Holocaust's history. Within its pages lies a harrowing chronicle of unspeakable atrocities, a narrative that had long remained shrouded in secrecy. This tale stands among countless others that have been chronicled, all bearing witness to a dark chapter in human history. Yet, by bringing these stories to light, their truths and the malevolence they encapsulate should forever be etched into collective memory, ensuring they are never consigned to oblivion.
A Historical Record Attesting to the Heartless and Brutal Atrocities of Canada's Indigenous People Weeping Goes Unheard educates and highlights those unfamiliar with Canada's shady history in its treatment of native people. This comprehensive narrative presents their heartbreak and how they endeavored, failed, tried again and again to live together peacefully and equally with the non-Indigenous population. These accounts demonstrate that there can be no peace and harmony unless there's equal justice for all. Lucia Mann records the harrowing personal stories of racial genocide on the part of European settlers, which ultimately led to creating the abhorrent "Indian Act"-now 144 years old. This law paved the way for other subsequent immoral treatment of Canada's indigenous people. Weeping Goes Unheard represents a long overdue look at tragic circumstances that have been existing in the shadows for far too long. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Lucia Mann, humanitarian and activist, was born in British colonial South Africa in the wake of World War II. She now resides in British Columbia, Canada. After retiring from freelance journalism in 1998, she wrote a four-book African series to give voice to those who have suffered and are suffering brutalities and captivity. Weeping Goes Unheard is her eighth book that exposes accounts of both personal and social injustice.
