Residential Schools

Hi like really like the presantion beacause he wasnt just talking about fake stuff it was all real.I have proof, for example he had some connections like his parent were involed. After the present i felt like crying such mean people.Just to let you know im talking about residential school.Who would drag a child away from their loved ones just becuase they werent the same.Let me anwser that, mean horried people.The kids had to be take away at 8, they would come back 16. It was so harsh back then, i am really happy i wasnt done to me or my family.But it had to happen to other people becuase of there colour or culture.It doesnt happen anymore, or should be stoped you see it still happens to this day.Im getting off topic when they where taken away they all had to look the same, the people took their identiy away.I think you might be thinking how come the aborignal people never did anything.They couldnt it was too fast, the people just came and thought it was a beautiful place, the only thing was the aboriginal people dont fit in.So they got a government and made a law that a residential school was going to be built.And the people that had to suffer was, you guessed it the aboriginal people.The parents had to let their childer go becuase if they didnt they would go to jail or suffer phyical abuse.It was really sad for the poor people i feel so bad even though i never did anything.Now the kids did try to run away but alot of them were always cought and had to go through physical abuse.The kids that were lucky got away didnt have all the luck. If they would ever try to go back home (i would have) there parents would have passed away with small poxs.So now you have run away, with no place to go and no one likes you because you look different. And you dont know anything about your own culture.You would try to fit in, but how you look different and no one likes you. You would change everything about yourself.And that what half the people did.
