Among Canada\u2019s Indigenous people, those we have come to call \u201cIndians,\u201d schools have become a place of pain, sorrow, and loss. For the better part of a century these schools, called residential schools, were where Indigenous children came to be whipped, punished, and traumatized for the sin of not being white. First run by the government, and later by the Roman Catholic Church, these schools became a site of horror, torture, and death. Recently, the ground surrounding the residential school in Kamloops, British Columbia, revealed the graves of over 200 Indigenous children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Subsequent searches have found hundreds of other children around so-called \u201cresidential schools.\u201d I recently read a book by Native leader George Manuel (1921-1989) entitled\u00a0<em>The Fourth World<\/em>, published in 1974, who wrote of his school years in the following way:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThree things stand out in my mind, hunger, speaking English, and being called a heathen because of my grandfather. On the day we arrived at the school each new boy was assigned an interpreter who was a senior student. All the teachers were monks or devout lay Catholics. We called them brothers. In my first meeting with a brother, he showed me a long black leather strap and told me through my interpreter, \u2018If you are ever caught speaking Indian, this is what you will get across your hands.\u2019\u201d\u00a0\u2014 George Manuel, 1963-64.

Para los pueblos ind\u00edgenas en Canad\u00e1 que hemos llegado a llamar \u201cindios\u201d, las escuelas han sido lugares de dolor, tristeza y p\u00e9rdidas. Durante casi todo un siglo, a las \u201cescuelas residenciales\u201d llegaron ni\u00f1os y ni\u00f1as ind\u00edgenas para ser azotados, castigados y traumatizados por el pecado de no ser blancos.&nbsp; Administradas por el gobierno al principio, y despu\u00e9s por la Iglesia Cat\u00f3lica Romana, estas escuelas se convirtieron en sitios de horror, tortura y muerte. Hace poco, en las tierras alrededor de la escuela residencial en Kamloops, Colombia Brit\u00e1nica, se encontraron las tumbas de m\u00e1s de 200 ni\u00f1as y ni\u00f1os ind\u00edgenas. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">B\u00fasquedas posteriores han revelado los restos de otros cientos de ni\u00f1os y ni\u00f1as alrededor de las llamadas escuelas residenciales. Recientemente le\u00ed un libro escrito por el l\u00edder ind\u00edgena George Manuel (1921-1989) titulado&nbsp;<em>El Cuarto Mundo<\/em>, publicado en 1974, en el cual el autor describe sus a\u00f1os escolares de la siguiente manera:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cTres cosas me vienen a la memoria: el hambre, hablar ingl\u00e9s, y ser llamado un \u201cpagano\u201d debido a la cosmovisi\u00f3n de mi abuelo. El d\u00eda que llegamos a la escuela, a cada ni\u00f1o le asignaron un int\u00e9rprete, quien era un alumno mayor de edad. Todos los maestros eran monjes o cat\u00f3licos laicos devotos.&nbsp; Les dijimos \u201chermanos\u201d.&nbsp; En mi primer encuentro con un \u201chermano\u201d, me ense\u00f1\u00f3 una larga correa de piel negra y me dijo a trav\u00e9s de mi int\u00e9rprete: \u201cSi una vez se entera que has hablado \u201cindio\u201d, un azote de \u00e9sta es lo que recibir\u00e1s por encima de tus manos\u201d.&nbsp; Manuel, 1963-64.
