I'm just wondering what the sub's feelings are about this sort of thing.
I'm suspicious of any narrative that accuses Canada's past as racist. Are there good counternarrative sources to this sort of training/narrative?
Any indiginous conservatives who have oppinions on this?
old newspaper archives are another great resource on this specific topic...they are one of the only things that can’t be altered to fit the current narrative. Specifically searching about residential schools one will find stories of school travelling brass bands, travelling hockey teams, sports and extracurricular activities, etc. It will surprise you.
People always compare first nations to white people at peak success. They don't compare them to the lifestyles they lived pre-colonization. Hint, they didn't get along.
