September 30 marks #OrangeShirtDay and the first National Day for #TruthAndReconciliation. We wear orange to remember the Indigenous children who were sent to Residential Schools and never returned, and to honour the Survivors, their families, and their communities. #NDTR
Hundreds gathered in Ottawa for a rally and spirit walk on Parliament Hill Thursday to honour residential school survivors and the Indigenous children who went missing or died while attending residential schools across the country. #OrangeShirtDay
September 30 is #NationalDayforTruthandReconciliation, when we recognize the ongoing trauma caused by residential and day schools, and remember those who were lost, survivors and their families.
Wear orange for #OrangeShirtDay to show your support for residential school survivors and commitment to taking action towards reconciliation. If buying an orange shirt, support Indigenous businesses, or buy through the Orange Shirt Society (@SocietyShirt): https://t.co/ACITJBRBrz
Today, on #NationalDayforTruthandReconciliation, we reflect on this tragic legacy of residential schools.
At the @cityoftoronto we are committed to taking concrete action to meaningfully support all Indigenous residents.

@KevinRBrackett Apocalypse Now / Apocalypse Now Redux! It absolutely blew my mind the first time I saw it - I thought it was brilliant. Anyone going to film school should be shown this film, & it is what they should strive for. 10/10
Way to go @Pink! This shouldn't even be happening in the first place, it shouldn't be a thing, especially in this day & age/culture/society, but great to see those of influence stepping up to help (& hopefully right some wrongs). #BeTheChangeYouWantToSee

As I was a big fan of @peeweeherman & Pee-wee's Playhouse when I was a kid I was saddened to hear that John Paragon (Jambi the Genie) passed away. #RIPJohnParagon & thank you for the memories.

I made a promise as a kid to my mom i would never remove my turban. Today it is in the Hall of Fame. Embrace what makes you different. It is your superpower. This is the crown I wear each day. Thank you mom.
I came across this #quote & thought it was #excellent: "Life is too short to get bored". Not sure who came up with it, but I think/feel it's true & very deep/#insightful (especially given this #COVID19#pandemic we're currently/still in) & needs to be shared. Be #safe.
