"My Entry into Aboriginal Understanding" is a collection of eight articles written by Common Cause member Greg Macdougall, also a member of IPSMO - Indigenous Peoples Solidarity Movement Ottawa.

The articles cover a range of topics from culture and language to sovereignty and activism.

The booklet has just been released online as a PDF (16 pgs, or 8 pgs when printed doublesided) in two formats:
* one, a 'front-to-back' version that can be read online (or printed)
* two, a 'print-formatted' version that folds/staples into a booklet when printed.

IPSMO has handed out a couple hundred of these booklets in print form over the past year, but now it is also available online: http://equitableeducation.ca/2011/aboriginal-understanding-booklet
