Summary:
"
Power
through
Testimony
documents how survivors are remembering and
reframing
our understanding of
residential
schools
in the wake of the 2007 Indian
Residential
Schools
Settlement Agreement, which includes the Truth and
Reconciliation
Commission, a forum for survivors, families, and communities to share their memories and stories with the Canadian public. The commission closed and reported in 2015, and this timely volume reveals what was happening on the ground. Drawing on field research during the commission and in local communities, the contributors reveal how survivors are unsettling colonial narratives about
residential
schools
and how churches and former school staff are receiving or resisting the new '
residential
school story'."--From publisher.
