Indigenous Reading: Residential Schools, Decolonization and Reconciliation

This list includes books on colonization, decolonization, and reconciliation. It includes books on residential schools, which started in the 1870s, and existed until 1996, when the last one closed. These schools are where many Indigenous children lived, suffered and died, after they were taken from their parents. This list is a great way to start learning about the history of Indigenous Peoples, the first people of this land, we now call Canada.
