The National Day for Truth and Reconciliation is a solemn reminder of the thousands of Indigenous children who were forcibly taken from their families and placed in residential schools, where many suffered abuse and neglect. This dark chapter in Canadian history has left lasting scars on Indigenous communities, affecting generations. Today, this day serves not only to remember and honor those children but also to acknowledge the ongoing impact of these injustices. It calls on all Canadians to reflect on the past and work towards healing and reconciliation, fostering a society that respects and values Indigenous cultures and histories. #truthandreconciliation #indigenous #orangeshirtday #everychildmatters #residentialschools #canada #reconciliation #trc #firstnations #truth #canadianhistory #indigenouslivesmatter #mmiwg #residentialschoolsurvivors #socialstudies #turtleisland #canadianteachers #nationaldayfortruthandreconciliation #september #indigenouscanada #metis #native

🔵 The phrase “transitional justice” is, perhaps, one of the most frequently used terms that is largely incomprehensible to people outside of the justice sector. Transitional justice work encompasses a wide range of activities aimed at furthering society’s ability to come to terms with the history and impacts of large-scale conflict, repression, and human rights violations. Transitional justice aims to provide recognition to victims, survivors, and families; to rebuild the trust of individuals in state institutions; to reinforce respect for human rights; and to promote the rule of law, all as critical steps towards reconciliation and the prevention of new violations.
