The Tyee (interview): Revisiting the Record of the Sisters of St. Ann

I was interviewed twice by Francesca Fionda for an article on the role of the Sisters of St. Ann in several institutions, including Indian Residential Schools & Indian Day Schools. This congregation started teaching at the Catholic Indian Day schools in Kahnawà:ke around 1915. This article critically examines not only the impacts on survivors and their families, but amplifies Indigenous voices for justice.

Francesca worked on this piece for many months. It is definitely work the read! Niá:wen Francesca for everything that you put into this and for both interviews 🙂
