Inclusion Infusions: Healing the Legacy of the Residential Schools

Posted on Friday, July 9th, 2021

The Honourable Justice Murray Sinclair, Chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, has identified education as core to reconciliation, stating, “Education got us into this mess and education will get us out of it.” The Legacy of Hope Foundation has many incredible resources for all Canadians, and especially educations to better understand and explore the truth and impact of the residential school system.

I highly recommend watching this 27 minute video: Where are the Children? This video was created in 2001 to:

  • acknowledge the experiences of, and the impacts and consequences of Canada’s Residential School System on Indigenous peoples;
  • to create a public and historical record of this period in Canadian history that could be easily accessed by Canadians; and
  • to promote public awareness, understanding and education of the history and legacy of residential schools.
