The dark history of America's Native boarding schools
Over the last few months, First Nations groups across Canada announced
the discovery of thousands of unmarked graves on or close to residential
schools where Native children were forcibly sent. The discoveries forced
long-overdue conversations across Canada about its ignored history, but
they also forced similar introspection in the United States, where
Native kids were also sent to boarding schools to “kill the Indian, and
save the man.” Today, Cowessess First Nation member Chasity Delorme
talks about Canada’s journey to reconciliation, and Dr. Katrina
Phillips of the Red Cliff Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe speaks of
America’s boarding schools and their impact on Native peoples across the
country.
