Kawanita’s Survival
One of the most pervasive violations of human rights affecting Indigenous young girls and women worldwide is the failure to deal immediately with abusive offenders. This neglect contributes to the rising statistics of Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, particularly in Canada. These statistics are rooted in historical, political, and deep-seated social norms that allow such crimes against women to persist.
Abusers often face minimal consequences, receiving little more than a slap on the wrist. They frequently return to the home and the victim, causing further harm and, in some cases, leading to murder or female suicide. The lack of protective policies and the failure to incarcerate abusers highlight the inaction of police, officials, government, and courts, who stand by and do nothing.
Indigenous women and young girls are silenced at the court level when abusers are placed in reconciliation programs, which fail to break the cycle of abuse. The silenced must have their voices heard.
We stand firm in this demonstration to protect our people from such violence.
