Andrew Woolford is professor of sociology and criminology at the University of Manitoba, an emeritus member of the Royal Society of Canada College, and former president of the International Association of Genocide Scholars. He is author of ‘This Benevolent Experiment’: Indigenous Boarding Schools, Genocide and Redress in the United States and Canada (2015) and Between Justice and Certainty: Treaty-Making in British Columbia (2005), and co-author of The Politics of Restorative Justice (2019) and Informal Reckonings: Conflict Resolution in Mediation, Restorative Justice, and Reparations (2005).

Reunion, Remembrance, and Reclamation at an Urban Indian Residential School (2021); Canada and Colonial Genocide (2017); The Idea of a Human Rights Museum (2015); and Colonial Genocide in Indigenous North America (2014). He has worked on two community-based research projects with residential school Survivors: 1) Embodying Empathy, which designed, built, and tested a virtual Indian Residential School that serves as a site of knowledge mobilization and empathy formation; and 2) Remembering Assiniboia, which focuses on commemoration of the Assiniboia Residential School. He is completing a project on human and more-than-human relations within genocidal processes under the title “Genocide with Nature.”

"In Genocide in Canada, Andrew Woolford provides a clear-eyed, nuanced, and unflinching examination of Canada's treatment of Indigenous peoples that amounts, despite the rhetoric of denialists, inevitably to genocide. Not content to counter the more obviously bad-faith arguments against situating Canadian settler colonialism as a genocidal project, Woolford redefines the terrain of the "debate" to reveal that there is no debate at all. This book is an essential read in an era of rising misinformation and nationalist reactionism."
