Journey of Forgiveness: Healing Soul Wounds From The Boarding School Histories Of The Indigenous Peoples

  • サマリー

  • In 1879, Lt. Richard Henry Pratt founded the Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Pennsylvania that resulted in policies of cultural genocide to force the assimilation of the children of Indigenous Peoples into White society. His model was widely adopted and children were forcibly removed from their families. The goal was to “kill the Indian to save the man.” The children had to stop speaking their native languages, give up their tribal customs and way of life, and experienced the eradication of their native identities. They had to learn English and embrace Christianity. The children suffered severe mental, physical and sexual abuses which resulted in their premature death, trauma and suicide. Dr. Denise Lajimodiere shares the experiences of her parents in boarding school, the impact which their experiences had on her own childhood, and the forgiveness she had to find within herself to heal and break the generational trauma for the sake of her children and grandchildren.
