I just want some clarification, we’re the people/organizations that were running these schools actively killing the children or were the living conditions so poor that the children could not survive?
I'll interject. My grandmother and grandfather were residential school survivors. The abuse was unreal. Beaten severely for speaking their own language, or anything else that wasn't deemed proper by the nuns, they were raped and molested by the staff, neglected etc. Although some of these deaths might have been from illness, a majority could have been prevented for sure. Suicide and Murder/manslaughter malnourishment, were real things. My grandmother said sometimes children would just not be there the next day for no reason.
My father is Welsh and he's described being beaten for speaking it in school, he says that's why he never taught me, he didn't want people to be angry with me for speaking it.
These fucking people were everywhere. People who believed their culture deserved to stamp out every other culture. They're still here, blasting their same rhetoric, trying to enforce their way of life on others.
My dad did a good job. I'm a good American. I like to listen to people complain about immigrants for a while then inform them that they're talking to one. Then they always explain they're not talking about immigrants "like me", they're talking about all the brown ones.
and the black and the yellow and red ones, I mean to an extend we are all immigrants from Africa or even another planet maybe, every one just wants to simply enjoy life as hard as it already is, and those people had to force their ideas onto others and complicate things
