Speaking our truth : a journey of reconciliation / Monique Gray Smith.

Summary:

"This nonfiction book examines how we can foster reconciliation with Indigenous people at individual, family, community and national levels."--Provided by publisher.
Canada's relationship with its Indigenous people has suffered as a result of both the Residential School system and the lack of understanding of the historical and current impact of those schools. Healing and repairing that relationship requires education, awareness and increased understanding of the legacy and the impacts still being felt by Survivors and their families.
