Orange Shirt Day is a legacy of the St. Joseph Mission Residential School (1891-1981) Commemoration Project and Reunion events that took place in Williams Lake, BC, Canada, in May 2013. This project was the vision of Esketemc (Alkali Lake) Chief Fred Robbins, who is a former student himself. As spokesperson for the Reunion group leading up to the events, former student Phyllis (Jack) Webstad told her story of her first day at residential school when her shiny new orange shirt, bought by her grandmother, was taken from her as a six-year old girl.

Phyllis Webstad Orange Shirt Day Presentation
Переглядів 15 тис.3 роки тому
Phyllis Webstad, founder of the Orange Shirt Society thanks the global community for taking part in the September 30th Orange Shirt Day and educating others as to the effects of Residential Schools on the First Nations of Canada.
After hearing this story again, I have become more clear on what I must do. I am in the process of ordering 100 or more orange shirts that I was planning to sell and give away, however the selling part was bothering me. Instead of putting a price on them I believe, to honor this story, I must give them to anyone that wants one. Since I live below the poverty line, I would be limited in what I can do, so to allow others to help, I will take donations from those taking the shirts so I can make more available to others. Thankyou Phyllis Webstad for sharing this story and being such and inspiration to us all.

Thank you for having the courage to share your story. While these stories bring much pain and grief, they need to be told. We can not allow history to repeat itself. I will be showing this video to my students, and will actively work on truth and reconciliation.
Hard not to lose it on someone who says “forget about it, it happened so long ago.”
Thank you for your story Phyllis and I can't imagine the horrors you and others have lived. The orange shirt has not only made your stories accessible for adults, but especially for my and others' children, with whom I've shared your story. Since telling them, my daughter often speaks about it, listens to First Nations music, watches traditional dances, etc. One colour reached the entire nation and has been the most effective tool to have us connect. You are loved.
It is absolutely heartbreaking what happened to so many families and it wasn't that long ago😞
Thank you for sharing this story 🥹
Lots of holes in her story. The nuns were gone by the time she was staying at St Joseph's which was converted to a student hostel, and she went to public school at William's Lake. Some of the staff were Indigenous and they may have taken her shirt and returned it when she left a year later, or it might not have fit her anymore and was passed on to a smaller child.
Her story is not factual. It was impossible for Nuns to take away her shirt, all Nuns had left the school years before she was there. Actually, a Native person probably took her orange shirt to be cleaned and later returned to her. Why doesn't she mention that 9% of the teaching staff at residential schools were indigenous by 1961? In fact, her teacher remembers her as a happy student. Why don't they interview her? In another interview, she tells how her Native mother and White father abandoned her, She was raised by her grandmother, and her Native uncles beat her when she was at the reservation. If you want Truth and reconciliation you have to tell the entire truth and interview everyone.
MESSAGE: You present day Canadians are guilty and responsible for others past misdeeds and must embrace this distortion of the facts of life at the turn of the century.
Happy NDP day!
💐🧡
Thank you, Phyllis, for sharing your story. ❤ I care!
Kchi wliwni for sharing your story. 🖤🖤🖤❤🧡🧡🧡 every year we honor our future generations and those lost and hurt by hate
Re:comment: Jesus Christ Almighty God will be the real authentic judge in every single case/situation/experience. Nobody’s gonna be left out feeling like they haven’t really been heard. Jesus Christ is hearing you in ways that you may not even be aware of. Re: all the people who have been lost & hurt by hate > I can understand it in my own way! It’s brutal! The orange ‘T’ shirt will be around for as long as you let it. Yet; think about this: your precious loved one is sleeping soundly. 😴it’s virtually impossible for anyone’s loved one to see or hear or know anything under the sun! They’re literally at peace! You’re the ones living still & think that wearing an orange T-shirt will make a difference; maybe it will. But with the devil showing his true colours like he did in those residential schools that was absolute evil. The Catholic Church was involved in that, I’ve learned about that, that’s sickening to say the least. I’m deeply sorry for your losses no 2 ways about it. Hate is also connected with Satan the Devil; thus evil! There’s NO WAY this would have occurred with Jesus Christ. He’s having to allow the Devil to show up all his ugliness so that nobody can say that they didn’t understand! Line up with Jesus Christ & you won’t be sorry! 🙏Blessings to all of you!
sorry for your loss, it must be hard on you
Heart wrenching but great video of the untold stories. Knowing the truth will set us free!
Excellent video. My heart breaks for Phyllis and all those who were inflicted by the scourge of residential schools. And I am so sorry.
Granny should have prepared you that you would be wearing a uniform.😢
What kind of people would lie about dead children just to sell orange t-shirts? A people without a soul, that's what. A people with no sense of the sacred, no honor, no decency. I will never be reconciled with liars.
thank you for sharing the stories of you and your family...sending you love
I agree 100%!!! Bring back the religion of the Native American people to be integrated into American schools. The country lacks religion, and religion NEEDS to be taught in schools. Which religion though? Islam? Judaism? Christianity? Hinduism? Buddhism? Taoism? Etc. The ONLY rightful and ethical religion to ever be taught on American soil, would be whatever religions the Native Americans practice, before the violent European terrorists invaded and was responsible for the Native American HOLOCAUST murdering, r@ping, giving illness to HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of Native Americans throughout the Americas. And then after invading the Americas, forcefully made the Native Americans to change their religion, culture, and language, and even pushed them out of their own land into reserves. Yes, I agree 100% that religion NEEDS to be in schools. But because there's so many different religions, the only ethical religion to be taught in American schools would to give justice to the Native Americans and have them teach the religions they practice. Look up "Residential schools graves", it's about hundreds or may even be thousands unmarked graves for babies and children found at the Residential schools that the Christians tried to force religion onto Nagive children. The Christian Preists would SA, R@pe, impregnate and then murder the babies, beat and malnourish, mentally and emotionally abuse the Native children. Religion can be a power trip, and I can see how Narcassists will go become a religious leader, so they can control others to abuse them, even murder then, and continue to get away with it, by hiding behind their religion. So yes, religion ought to be taught in schools. But if any religion to be ethical to teach in schools based off the horrific holocaust of the Natives by the hands of the European terrorists, it should be Native American religions to be taught in schools. Another alternative idea, is to teach the basics of the major religions (Christianity, Islam, Hinduism Buddhism, etc). But take religions and God out of the teaching, just the name only (Allah, Jesus, Shiva, Buddha, etc). Example teaching the commandments, though shall not kill, cheat, lie, greed, envy, etc. Can still teach those things without mentioning a name. Religions do provide a great sense of morals and values, and it should be incorporated into schools. But with so many religions, the only rightful religion would be Native American religion, or just the teachings of multiple religions without using any names.
The entire world grieves with you and every child who has lived through this most horrendous attempt of cultural genocide, Phyllis. We are horrified at what's taken place and at how very many babies were stolen from their mother's loving arms to attend these torture chambers of "education". I live in Newfoundland on the West coast and my dad was French/Indian Miq'maw. We didn't have the residential schools in Newfoundland, thank God, but the racism and torture at the hands of the sister of 'no' mercy were none the less felt by Indigenous and french-speaking students. We share in your grief for the lost and tortured babies. Much love and heart felt empathy. Thank you for sharing your story and lighting the world on fire. God Bless you and every Indigenous person who has suffered so very much.
Thank you dear heart.
Thank you for sharing, Phyllis.
Thank you for sharing, I am near your heart

Roses are red violets are blue we got scammed when he got views
Learn the truth, culture is strength
Culture is strength for our future generations
They played this at our school assembly yesterday.
Had no Idea the Trudeau was in Power when the Federal Govt took over the Schools. #Shocked We should not forget that 1804 ERA West Coast Natives kept White Slaves and even had Black Slaves in the States...
I’m so happy that every cilhd matters onger is the best🎽
Respect is part of indigenous culture, proudly
Hello dear, Thanks for sharing your story with us. As an Iranian person I respect all of you. Before we came to Canada we did not have any idea about this issue, but when we learnt this story we were so upset. We wear orange T-shirts on this day and we are your voice.
thank you for sharing. I am learning slowly and I am truly appalled. I will honor the survivors, I promise
Our prayers to the families who lost their children under such a nefarious culture
The real challenge now is whether governments and the Vatican will renounce The Doctrine of Discovery, the framework Spain, Portugal, and England used for the colonization of many lands, including North America

I live in Canada and i know a little about this story,i also saw the movie Anne with and E on Netflix and i saw a little of what the school did to people ,but im glad you are alive and can share this for all to know what happened to the indigenous people.I am so sorry you and your family had to go through all that. Sending you hugs,light and love. 🧡i am wearing the orange shirt today with my boys.
As a father of two boys I cannot imagine the trauma that having your children taken away from you would cause you. I feel ashamed of my ancestors for performing such evil deeds. The road to hell is paved with good intentions.
i am so sorry
You should change your slogan to “native children matter”. You aren’t talking about every child when you use the slogan, so why not tell the truth.
