Orange Shirt Day - Friday’s Fact of the Day
Today we are commemorating Orange Shirt Day. This day was designed to educate people and promote awareness in Canada about the Indian residential school system and the impact it has had on Indigenous communities for over a century. The impact still continues today. In honour of this day, we will be sharing an interesting fact every day this week.
Today’s fact: There is cultural diversity among the Indigenous Peoples of Canada. There is not one culture for all Indigenous people. Each nation has its own customs, traditions, beliefs, worldviews, and of course, culture. Cultural practices and belief systems are influenced by each nation’s unique experience on the land and with each other.
If you don’t have an orange shirt, please see Ms. B in Room 19 for an orange ribbon.
