Listen "S2 Episode 4: 215"
Episode Synopsis
What’s happening in Canada is America’s story too. Indian Residential schools were used as a tool to execute ethnic genocide. These schools were not a safe haven, they were over run with abuse and neglect. 215 children went through the school doors and never came out. We must bring all of the children home. Where there is a school their will be bodies, some marked and others left to the sands of time. I am 2 generations removed from this era, my Grandfather was a state schooler. He was taken from the reservation and contracted out as an indentured servant at just 5 years old. The 215 hit a nerve with me because their story is a part of me, that could have easily been my Grandfather. We need to search the former school sites in the US and Canada until we bring them all home.
