I extend an invitation to individuals and organizations holding relevant information or resources to contribute to this important undertaking, ensuring the provision of accurate and comprehensive data to the public.
My objective is to make this site a platform for accessing all content related to the history of Indian Residential Schools in Canada. Additionally, I plan to include resources pertaining to over 408 schools identified in areas occupied by the United States.
In due course, I aim to establish links to various resources for each identified school. This will encompass news articles, videos, established podcasts, historical records and events, updates on unmarked graves, firsthand accounts, current events, and more.
As part of this project, I intend to engage in conversations with individuals, documenting their experiences and insights, with their permission, of course. These interviews will feature survivors, unmarked grave locators, chiefs of surrounding Nations, and any others who can shed light on this subject. Whenever possible, the podcast episodes will be recorded in video format to reach a wider audience.
Furthermore, there are numerous online repositories where you can access articles and artifacts of significance to this subject, including photographs, PDFs, documents, and more.
Please don't hesitate to reach out to me if you would like to contribute or if you have any inquiries.
