Come join the HRB this upcoming Monday (1/12), for the screening of 2024 Academy Award nominated documentary Sugarcane. This film explores the horrors of the Indian residential school system which served as a tool of state-funded cultural genocide in both the United States and Canada for over 150 years. Indigenous children were placed into residential schools, where they were subsequently separated from their cultures, religions, languages, families and communities to propagate forceful assimilation into an Anglo-Saxon world. Sugarcane focuses on the investigation of unmarked graves found at Saint Joseph’s Indian Residential School in British Columbia, Canada, the survivors of these residential schools, and how the indigenous were impacted by oppression, intergenerational trauma, and colonialism.

Trigger Warning: This movie contains discussions of severe violence including physical, s*xual, and psychological abuse, murder, and racism.

Take a break and breathe! 🌬️
