This website encourages you to spend time talking about Aboriginal Canadians, their cultures, the importance of preserving their cultures, languages and heritage, and the historical injustices they have endured, from treaties to residential schools.
If you're interested in learning more about your personal, hidden biases, please consider taking this online quiz before you begin reading further.
The recent conclusion of Canada's Truth and Reconciliation Commission encourages discussion of Canada's role in the injustices committed against Indigenous peoples, and the responsibility Canadians must face in reconciling for the damage done. Throughout this week, we hope to create a space where teachers and learners can learn about and discuss the cultural implications of the cultural genocide of Canadian Indigenous communities.
Here you will find works by Indigenous educators or thinkers, or non-Indigenous writers who are recognized and respected within those communities.
