Perhaps the most symbolically potent strategy used to alienate residential school children was addressing them by assigned numbers onlyーnot by the names with which they knew and understood themselves.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this frank and poignant memoir of her years at St. Joseph's Mission, Sellars breaks her silence about the residential school's lasting effects on her and her familyーfrom substance abuse to suicide attemptsーand eloquently articulates her own path to healing. ＜em＞Number One＜/em＞ comes at a time of recognitionーby governments and society at largeーthat only through knowing the truth about these past injustices can we begin to redress them.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
