Because They Were Women: The Montreal Massacre | Josée Boileau

1 post | 2 to read

Fourteen young university students, murdered because they were women, are memorialized in this definitive account of a tragic day that forced a reckoning with violence against women in our culture. Each of the victims of what became known as the "Montreal Massacre" are remembered, their lives cut short on December 6, 1989, when a man entered their school and systematically shot every young woman he encountered, motivated by a misogyny with roots that go far beyond one man and one day.
