THIS IS ADORABLE, MY HEART

when Mr.Café immigrated to Rooibos City (USA) with his younger siblings, he set himself the task of learning english and above all to teach his siblings the language. Although he has a very strong mexican accent, his siblings were able to learn to speak English fluently and without a any accent.

Rest in peace to the wonderful legend

Akira Toriyama is the reason I started drawing comics and learning animate fight scenes. Rest in peace.

National Day of Truth and Reconciliation in Canada - first observed as a federal holiday in 2021. The orange shirt symbolizes how the residential school system took away the indigenous identities (and in many cases lives) of its students, and refers to the shirt stripped from residential school survivor Phyllis Jack Webstad.

every child matters 🧡

September 30th is known as Orange Shirt Day, the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, across Canada and North America in remembrance of those who suffered in US/Canadian Indian Residential Schools. We recognize the harm done to generations of children by the Indian Residential Schools and share our collective histories as an affirmation of our commitment to ensure that Every Child Matters!

Remembering the estimated 150,000 Indigenous children who endured the residential schooling system, and its trauma that continues to be felt to this very day by survivors and their families.

Children were taken around this time of year to attend these ‘schools’, and often enough, when the school season was over, they were not returned to their families. We knew many suffered and passed, but could have never guessed the atrocious number of children’s remains that we are now finding.

As of May 2022, The remains of over 6,000 children have been recovered from unmarked graves at the locations of these former residential schools within Canada, and 500 have been discovered at 19 schools in the US. However, the Interior Department said that number could climb to the thousands or even tens of thousands.

For reference to help you digest how large the numbers will become when all schools have been properly investigated, there were approximately 139 schools in Canada and so far only (as of May 2022) 36 investigations have been completed in Canada. The US has identified more than 400 schools that were highly supported by the U.S. government during their operations, and more than 50 associated burial sites, a figure that could grow exponentially as research continues.

This wasn’t as long ago as you might think. The last residential school closed in 1997, only twenty-five years ago.

“Kill the Indian, Save the man” was a common phrase in these schools. Being Indians was savage, but we were ‘savable’ in the eyes of their Christian / Catholic God if we were stripped of the things that made us us.

I am lucky enough to know survivors. I am alive because of survivors.

Survivors taught us younger generations about the horrors they dealt with in residential schools. Beaten, tortured, murdered. Watching other children die from diseases grown in their unclean living situations. ‘Forgetting’ what tribe a child is from and giving them to another reservation to care for until the following year when they’d be taken away again. Raped girls who survived traumatic births at a young age only for their babies to be thrown in the furnace. Sterilizing boys and girls so that if they were released they couldn’t create any more ‘indians’.

These children were ripped from their homes, watched their parents die if they fought to keep their children, were forced to cut their hair (our hair is as sacred as our traditional clothing), and beaten if caught speaking in their native languages. As a 'reward' for good behavior in school, certain children were sent away to live with white families as slaves to 'learn the white way' during break periods between school semesters/years. 

Today, keep the families of those who lost loved ones who never returned, and the survivors who lived through unimaginable trauma in your hearts. Wear orange. Join a protest. Support indigenous peoples. Share our stories. Educate yourself on our history, not the false history written in books by white men, churches, and governments that supported and endorsed these institutions.

Because Every Child Matters.
