Now that you have examined the horrors and crimes of the Residential School System, it is time to put a human face to the tragedy. This assignment asks you to write a fictionalized account of the Residential School experience, focusing on the lived experience of an Indigenous student. Write 3 journal entries that encapsulate the lived experience of a Residential School survivor over time. Try to address the complete experience (living conditions, education, assimilation, punishment, emotional responses etc.)
Note: This assignment deals with traumatic experiences, including institutional violence, abuse, and child suffering. This subject matter is difficult to deal with and can be traumatizing. If this assignment is triggering, please contact me and we can address accommodation.
The assignment should be about 3-4 double spaced pages. You MUST use APA citations and include historical detail from a minimum of three other sources. You may also use content from the lecture and assigned material. Please also include a Works Referenced List
