Tsqelmucwílc : the Kamloops Indian Residential School - resistance and a reckoning

Haig-Brown, Celia 1947- (author.). Gottfriedson, Garry, 1954- (author.). Fred, Randy, (author.).

Summary: In May 2021, the world was shocked by news of the detection of 215 unmarked graves on the grounds of the former Kamloops Indian Residential School (KIRS) in British Columbia. Ground-penetrating radar confirmed the deaths of students as young as three in the infamous residential school system, which systematically removed children from their families and brought them to the schools. At these Christian-run, government-supported institutions, they were subjected to physical, mental, and sexual abuse while their Indigenous languages and traditions were stifled and denounced. ''Tsquelmucwilc'' (pronounced cha-CAL-mux-weel) is a Secwepemc phrase loosely translated as ''We return to being human again.'' Tsqelmucwilc is the story of those who survived the Kamloops Indian Residential School, based on the 1988 book Resistance and Renewal, a groundbreaking history of the school - and the first book on residential schools ever published in Canada.
