Your support of the film and our impact campaign means we can, and will, be able to continue sharing this story along with the many other Indigenous people who have been impacted by the United States policy of forced assimilation. Your contribution directly impacts our ability to ensure this story remains in the hands of Indigenous peoples to uplift and center the stories of Indian boarding school survivors and descendants.
