Western New York Native American communities are presently attempting to heal the wounds and break the cycle inter-generational trauma resulting from the boarding (residential) school experience. Unseen Tears documents the stories of boarding school survivors, their families, and social service providers.
Sending my love to my ppls hearts i love you my elders my ancestors n our babies❤❤❤❤❤❤
this really is horrible. i really hope that our government learns to educate elementary and high school students about these events, without knowledge of the past - we truly will live in oblivion.
wishful thinking. You know te worst form of life is politicians. expect nothing from that group. An apology as some suggest should be forthcoming...is fake behavior. An apology is a quick, instantaneous dereference. nothing more. its a white thing so I don't understand.
Well it got worse now they teaching kids about sexuality add a young age
@@cyraxkkcb2mo10 Learning about sexuality is good, sex protection, and related topics, because we learn about ourselves and our identity. But even today, this is not thought in schools, the history of racism, segregations or the horrors the US did to the people. And it is sad because kids my age (15-20) barely know about history, and simply dont care to educate themselves in all ways. Schools dont enforce it, parents dont enforce it. Our generation is blind.
sorry for your loss and for the loss of the Aboriginal Native Australian children too.
May the world awaken to the silence of this evil in Canada and globally.
My heart breaks to hear him say I got my hands hit, I got the pattle (for doing IT) and really it was for speaking
My grandpa had crooked fingers from having them broken because he refused to write in English during his time spent in the Boarding School.
They tried to destroy the most beautiful people ever created. Rise up beautiful gems of the earth..you will be treasured
They would cut scalps off people and go to war constantly with other indian tribes, they also kidnapped women from other tribes. It's obvious you haven't read much history
This hurt 😢
Evil evil people ran that school poor children living like that
How come some white people even some natives themselves cant let those of us that want to practice our natives ways let us do so in peace. We love going to pow wows and we love to sing, drum, dance. Sit up in sacred ceremonies. Let us be who we were born on this earth to be, we had no choice in that. Our Native ways are what helps us heal. When we burn medicine and say a good prayer, its a positive feeling and thats what they tried to take from us.
They took more than our culture, they murdered us and gave us pagan holidays, they stole oil, gold etc and then put us in slavery...these people are in trouble with Yahawah ✊🏾👑❤
That's really sad story. Nobody deserves to be treated bad at all.
the only reason the kids were happy when they were playing is cuz they were abused and they want to get out of that abuse!
Another reason why not to trust the government
Well da!! Don't cut them any slack!! It was awrful and child abuse was horrible period and dear black people tell if they are the Indians
dude, this is sad
It's so hard because back then with the Indian schools that the parents had no choice that they were threatened to be brought to jail and be prosecuted for not bringing their children to these schools and so if they did if they had to give you prosecuted they'll end up taking their kid anyway and they probably were lied and told that your kids are to get a education and learn and we're gonna learn about each other and they're going to learn about their culture and eathe culture and English and everything and it was nothing like that it was a prison for children and because it was run by catholics and the government it was hidden Yet in hidden for years and it's so sad that so many families and so many communities are still having tissue and trying to heal
Or the government agents simply abducted the children and brought them directly to the “school.”
Despicable, shameful and widely unacknowledged: That which remains unacknowledged can never be addressed never mind result in rapprochement.
How convenient for the government.
you know we constantly blame our problems on each other when honestly we should blame politicians and big business. everyone in the comments most likely has a shitty life some are shittier than others but what should be talked about is how we can put aside our differences and help the people that need help. seriously wake up america, learn from your mistakes already otherwise we might end up with a boarding school for muslims or mexicans next. (btw I really hope that the boarding school thing does not happen again)
Its true we need to learn from history. Right now the government has
attacked the people of Standing Rock to make way for an oil pipeline.
You talk of the possibility for more boarding schools? Well there are
similar things right now like some of these military style schools in
places like Mississippi where it is also ok for teachers to beat
students and use isolation....and there is often a stubborn refusal to
recognize the Indian Child Welfare Act. You talk of the possibility for
other types of boarding schools maybe we should be asking to see the
detention facilities that ICE uses to hold children. Let us also take a
deeper look into the family courts as they were involved in this as well
and continue to operate on deeply flawed premises.
I think many here agree with you Matthew. But what do we do with people who agree with government and big business? Are they not also part of that? There are places where we can intervene in this and I hope you find a place where you can too.
@@alchemicalmedia it. Of going to if you go to school you have free will
What the hell are you have no understanding what they went through period so when you walk in those little shoes then open your damn mouth so I suggest you clamp your mouth you clown head🤡
No DAPL
These stories should be told at all the pow wow,s let people here the horrors that went on in these schools, my family is Shawnee and my grandmother always told me don't tell any one your Indian, I guess I know why.
I'm proud to be indigenous. I'm proud to be human being. I'm proud to live on the land I was born on. Never lose who you are or who you came from. This is called colonization. We must reject it from out lives. Go back to eating healthy foods. Teach our children respect,honor,humility,love,culture,heritage,dances,songs. Continue to reject colonization.
maybe i;ve been mistaken all along.. i thought that kidnapping was a capital offense.
