Summary:
"The Assiniboia
school
is unique within Canada's
Indian
Residential
School
system. It was the first
residential
high
school
in Manitoba and one of the only
residential
schools in Canada to be located in a large
urban
setting. Operating between 1958 and 1973 in a period when the
residential
school
system was in decline, it produced several future leaders, artists, educators, knowledge keepers, and other notable figures. It was in many ways an experiment within the broader destructive framework of Canadian
residential
schools. Stitching together memories of arrival at, day-to-day life within, and departure from the
school
with a socio-historical reconstruction of the
school
and its position in both Winnipeg and the larger
residential
school
system, '

' offers a glimpse of Assiniboia that is not available in the archival records. It connects readers with a specific
residential
school
and illustrates that
residential
schools were often complex spaces where forced assimilation and Indigenous resilience co-existed. These recollections of Assiniboia at times diverge, but together exhibit Survivor resilience and the strength of the relationships that bond them to this day. The volume captures the troubled history of
residential
schools. At the same time, it invites the reader to join in a
reunion
of sorts, entered into through memories and images of students, staff, and neighbours. It is a gathering of diverse knowledges juxtaposed to communicate the complexity of the
residential
school
experience."--From publisher.
