HISTORY & STORIES OF RESIDENTIAL INSTITUTIONS (PART ONE):

In Part One, Josue and I dive deep into the harrowing history and heart-wrenching stories of survivors from indigenous residential and boarding schools. Indigenous youth were subjected to horrific abuse, including sexual sterilization, smallpox inoculations, near-starvation experiments, and thousands dying from maltreatment. As Rod Alexis of the Nakota Sioux Nation painfully noted, “They killed our spirit.”
