DURING  THE SUMMER   OF 2018, the then Executive Editor of the Osgoode Hall
Law Journal, Ari Zuckerbrot, approached me about producing a special issue
focused on an Indigenous/Aboriginal law topic. I was delighted to agree to serve
as the guest editor, and even more delighted when the Osgoode Indigenous
Students' Association (OISA) agreed to partner with the Journal to make the
project a collaborative effort. This special issue is the result.
    Many  members  of OISA supported this special issue in various ways; these
contributions were co-ordinated and spearheaded primarily by Alana Robert and
Laura Sharp, who were third year OISA students during the 2018-2019 academic
year. Together we discussed a number of potential themes for the special issue, and
ultimately chose: A Right without a Rights-Holder Is Hollow. With input from
OISA  members, we selected the authors for the special issue. We then planned a
workshop-which   was held in April 2019 at Osgoode Hall Law School-where
authors presented drafts of their papers. Most of the logistical work of organizing
and hosting the workshop was completed by Ms. Robert and Ms. Sharp, with
assistance from other members of OISA and from the Journal's student editors.
The workshop  was well-attended by students and faculty members. Dorothy
Peters not only gave an opening prayer and a closing prayer, but also stayed
throughout the workshop to contribute to the discussion of the papers. After the
workshop, the authors revised and further developed their papers to incorporate
the feedback from the workshop. The Journal's student editors then completed
the editorial work on the submitted papers.
