We Stand Together: Kelly Houle
from U Radio · host U Multicultural
Kelly Houle's family is from Sandy Bay First Nation, but she has lived in Winnipeg most of her life. Houle has had a difficult life, struggling with mental health and addictions after the abuse she experienced within the Canadian residential school System. https://u-channel.ca/we-stand-together/ Over 130 residential schools operated in Canada. The first federal residential school began around 1883; the last closed in 1996. We Stand Together invites Indian residential school and day school survivors, 60's Scoop, and intergenerational survivors to share their truth. This project is an opportunity for those on their journeys of healing to share their experiences and perspectives so all can learn about the effects of residential and day schools and the challenges Indigenous communities still face. U Multicultural is located on Treaty 1 territory, the traditional territory of the Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, and Dene Peoples, and the National Homeland of the Red River Métis. This project has been made possible by the Government of Canada through Canadian Heritage.
