General material designation

    Other title information

    CONTENT WARNING: This material contains an image of youth, staff and government officials at a residential school run by the United Church of Canada. Residential institutions, historically referred to as residential schools, were institutions that forced Indigenous children from their families, homes, cultures, and languages and contributed to a legacy of harm still pervasive today. Residential institutions divided children by Judeo-Christian gender binaries and structured the institution in this manner. Materials of this nature can be upsetting and may be unsuitable for some uses.  Please make any necessary preparations prior to viewing. The Indian Residential Schools Crisis Line at 1-866-925-4419 is available as needed. Offensive and outdated language "Indian" can be found in the general notes as it relates to an official government position named as such during that time.
