    The people of Alkali Lake profoundly helped three groups heal our hurts. We attended their trainings in the late eighties from the Flathead Reservation. We love them for what they did for themselves, so they could guide us. ❤️🌹

    There is a truth after all our pain I found a prayer, no religion has discovered I was scared to have a child I was sitting one day asking god why am I scared? to have a child I kept seeing god and his child jesus Christ my first son came he was 3 months old I held him out to god asking him to teach me to love my son like he loves his son jesus Christ teach me. To this day he is 29 years old god did a good promice to protect my family

    This is sickening, hopefully one day you’ll take these damn videos down. Everyone needs to move on and not remember these, that’s the only damn way🙄

      Moving on means working through the pain and talking about it. Non Indigenous people are not always educated on the topic and often times stereotyping stems from a lack of education. Racism is no longer tolerated!
      This video is a part of what reconciliation looks like. We can see survivors working through their healing. Hope!
      If you have ever taken a history class, they talk about war, Nazi's and the great depression; that is a part of history, as much as residential school are. History is taught so we as a society can work towards healing and a better future. Residential schools are a part of Canadian history.
      These memories that the survivors have, can not just disappear. We need to zoom in on Canadian history and inform the world to build a just society. Those who turn the other cheek are only continuing the cycle of ignorance towards Indigenous survivors and inter-generational survivors.
      You have one life and you can not unsay things that you put out into the universe. Being remembered for ignorance is not a way one should be remembered.
      Hold on to your lil-potato, because it is now mandatory to educate on this particular topic...All across Canada!

      I totally disagree it needs to be learnt and remembered forever and it will be.

      I am writing from Germany... The past DOES affect the future generations. The moment we stop talking about things in the past we open the path for it to happen gain. Did you listen? People coming back from that school where so traumatized they took the trauma back to their people (sexual and other abuse) this can carry on for generations! Talking and declaring it as wrong is as important as also talking to the next generations so they know, beeing treated like that is wrong. I hope some day the deep respect for people and their personal way of living will be normal but we are not there yet.
