  11. So, as I suspected, my maternal grandmother was #Metis, but ashamed of it. I just did some genealogy research on her ancestry -- #NativeAmerican Canadian on both her mother's and father's side. And I found the #ResidentialSchool where our family was taught that it was bad to be a "dirty little Indian" (a phrase she would use on me when I would walk around barefoot, or spent more time in Nature than indoors.)

  16. CW: Tuam official investigation

    The Irish gov't held a Commission into #tuam and issued a final report 30 October 2020. You can read it here. This happened due to pressure from activists on the Irish government, which is still to this day staunchly influenced, perhaps controlled ,by the church.

  26. Huge #OrangeShirt #memorial to honour all the native kids' lives lost in the cruel #ResidentialSchool system.
    On the site of one of the worst in Canada - #Namgis territory, #AlertBay. It was called St. Michael's Indian Residential School. It was demolished in 2015. #Umista Cultural Center sits on the old site. #Indigenous peoples have reclaimed their land there & are trying to heal from colonial abuses.

    We have racists in #Canada who are currently dishonouring the victims of residential schools by denying survivors' histories & saying mass graves are a lie. This is so wrong. We owe the ones who died & the living survivors support & reparations. Please don't let folks use denialism around you - confront them & stand up for the victims & survivors.

    Yes. We had a denialist come to #winnipeg with her entourage, spewing racism and disrespecting our survivors. I won't mention her name, as i don't want her to get more press, but it's easily looked up.
    #ResidentialSchool denialism should be illegal, same as holocaust denialism is in many places.
