Today is Canada's first National Day forTruth and Reconciliation. In case I have any non-Canadian friends who don’t know the history, between the late 1800s and the 1990's (yes, you read that correctly), thousands of Indigenous children (as young as 2 years old) were taken from their families, often by force, by the government of Canada and forced into these "schools", run by Christian churches. Many of the stolen children never came home because of the horrible abuse and conditions at these places. Many families were never even told what happened to their little children . Canadian kids used to be taught that this was done to "help Indians become part of society". The actual goal was to "kill the Indian in the child" - yes, a person in power actually said this. The horrifying legacy of what this did to an entire race and culture lives on today. Science is discovering that major trauma can cause physical changes in the brain, that can then be passed down to children of victims. So even kids born today may still have challenges because of the horror that was inflicted upon their grandparents. It's really hard to acknowledge this history - Canadians are supposed to be "so nice and so kind" right? But if we want to make sure nothing like this can ever happen again, we have to acknowledge it, own up to it, and actively work to make sure it doesn't happen to ANYONE, of any color, no matter where they come from. While it's difficult to think about, I'm glad it's getting this attention, finally. Taking a minute to think about how we would feel if the government came and stole our children from our homes, never to return, is LITERALLY the least we can do. https://www.facinghistory.org/stolen-lives-indigenous-peoples-canada-and-indian-residential-schools/chapter-3/killing-indian-child #nationaldayoftruthandreconciliation #orangeshirtday #everychildmatters
