As an Honorary Witness of the TRC I committed to Survivors to calling out denials of genocide when I hear them

[Wab Kinew @WabKinew]

CW - Residential Schools

.

In Residential Schools “the practice was not to send the bodies of students who died at schools to their home communities.”

That’s on page 1 of the TRC’s report on Missing Children & Unmarked Burials

Indigenous people: Take care.

Non-Indigenous people: Take action.

These words from @MumilaaqQaqqaq “Nice words with no action hurt when they are said by those who have power.” https://t.co/dF9jH5G8Td @NVSD44 #NVSDIndigenous #goforwardwithcourage @bokopacek @meghanleighb @janis_jmann @ChaninSmyth @jsfmcgowan @suzette_dohm

Amazing work @NichollsGr1. Educators can be nervous to have this conversation with young students. You have shown is it possible❤️@HeightsSeymour

[KNicholls @NichollsGr1]

Grade 1 students made a large heart with nature materials to honour those Indigenous children who never came home. We talked about residential schools and thought about how children should feel at school. @HeightsSeymour

Nothing but love for those children, to everyone reeling from this, and thank you to the Tk'emlups Te Secwepemc First Nation for the difficult news you shared.

[Martha Troian @ozhibiiige]

If you're not sharing the National Indian Residential School Crisis Line 1-866 925-4419 in your stories then you're not practicing trauma informed reporting.

I would deter readers to repost and share these stories.

We all have a role in this.

[Janis Mann @janis_jmann]

As settler’s on this land we must seek the truth to understand the pain, suffering and trauma of our past. This is our shared responsibility. https://t.co/CS4757LUte #everychildmatters

A prayer for those who made it home, and one for those who did not.

[Dr. Alika Lafontaine MD @AlikaMD]

My heart has 💔many times this week.

An ongoing effect of colonization and racism is rewriting people's lived experiences. This is not new to those who lived it, but acknowledgment unearths new kinds of trauma.

[Brené Brown @BreneBrown]

If we want to own the story of our country so we can write a new ending, we have to understand our story. The entire story. The truth.

"How the Word Is Passed" blew me away. This is an urgent read. Thank you for the tireless research @ClintSmithIII.
