I do workshops on the effects of colonization of residential schools. People don't understand what colonization is so I say, "Well, I'll give you a little example. When we started to go there, and I'd say we were nine or ten years old, we used to watch the movies every Sunday night. When we first saw the Indians getting killed, we were traumatized by that. Like how could they do that.., not knowing even that this is a movie and this is just a show. So we would cheer for the Indians because those were our people. Well, I don't know how many years later, it would be maybe three or four years later, when the Indians and the white guys were fighting, we were cheering for the white guys." So you think about that and I think, well what changed...where did that come from?
