Book
Because they were women : the Montreal Massacre, December 6, 1989 / Josée Boileau ; translation by Chantal Bilodeau.
"Fourteen young university students, murdered because they were women, are memorialized in this definitive account of the tragic day that forced a reckoning with violence against women in our culture. The victims of what became known as the “Montreal Massacre” are remembered, their lives cut short on December 6, 1989 when a man entered École Polytechnique and systematically shot every young woman he encountered. The killer was motivated by a misogyny whose roots go far beyond one man and one day. Preface written by Catherine Bergeron, the sister of one of the murdered women and a victim's advocate."-- Provided by publisher.
