Cree speakers revealing what Si Pih Ko really sang.
“Thanks Kandi White for more clarity on this post:
First, she told the pope to take the headdress off. Social media sources said she sang a prayer song to the tune of oh canada.

The most important time is the day after the apology so here is my "To Do" list for the Catholic Church, the Holy See and @Pontifex

[Samuel MacKay (he/him) @SamuelMackay]

I have so many complicated feelings about all of this, but so many other amazing Indigenous voices have said it better than I ever could.

@cblackst's 8-item to-do list is a great read to highlight some of those frustrations the collective ndn consciousness feel.

Seeing the OFFICIAL Vatican News page share their interpretation of this gesture from Chief Littlechild as seeing the Pope as "authority" is just the millionth piece of evidence that the Catholic Church's colonial and predatory mindset it was built on continues to operate today.

[Vatican News @VaticanNews]

During Pope Francis' 'penitential pilgrimage' to Canada, Indigenous Chiefs presented Pope with a feathered headdress after he addressed them. They placed on him the symbol of trust and authority after he asked for forgiveness for 'catastrophic' errors. #PopeInCanada #PopeFrancis

@SonoraBohaychuk I've literally had to leave work because of how frustrated I was on days I've missed taking my medication. I. FEEL. YOU.

Gerald Antoine, lead First Nations delegate, NWT regional chief for the AFN and residential school survivor: “We accept this apology as a gesture of good faith.” It’s a historical first step, he said, “however, only a first step: more needs to be done.”

“I also feel shame…for the role that the number of Catholics, particularly those with educational responsibilities, have had and all these things that wounded you [&] the abuse you suffered, and in the lack of respect shown for your identity and culture.” https://t.co/Nw1dhWTqiS

The man who killed four innocent Muslims & orphaned one - was a Grade 8 student just 6-7 years ago. This is *why* we do the work we do in schools.

This is why conversations about race & oppression are needed. Embedded into curriculum, into instruction.

Educate.

Did my experiment work? No. But did I learn from it? No. But did it help me grow as a scientist? Also no.
