Killing the Indian in the Child

Killing the Indian in the Child 2021 Directed by Gwenlaouen Le Gouil Tuer l'indien dans le coeur de l'enfant

The Indian Act, passed in Canada in 1876, made members of Aboriginal peoples second-class citizens, separated from the white population: nomadic for centuries, they were moved to reservations to control their behavior and resources; and thousands of their youngest members were separated from their families to be Christianized: a cultural genocide that still resonates in Canadian society today.
