Join us for an afternoon with Garry Geddes, as he reads from his latest book: Medicine Unbundled: A Journey Through the Minefields of Indigenous Health Care. This book explores the dark history of segregated Indigenous hospitals and has been praised as a “necessary story for Canadians to read.” Geddes has received numerous awards for his work, including the Lt. Governor’s Award for Literary Excellence. The author’s reading will be followed by a question and answer period, where participation is more than welcome!
