Residential schools have been a glanced over past of Canada’s past that it not talked about due to the tragedies that took place during the era. It is important to know what happened at the residential schools and Indigenous effected by it, but it is almost important to learn about how residential schools affect multiple generations of a family. With Indigenous culture being lost through residential schools, it brings on trauma for not only those affected by schools personally but also their family members of different generations. In the interview conducted I speak with Douglas, my neighbour who attends TRU to be a mechanic, and who’s parent were directly affected by the residential school as they did attend one. Being apart of the Kamloops residential school the story is relevant to hear since he explains how the school trauma his parents faced has affected Douglas into adult hood. Douglas believes that it is important to learn about how trauma doesn’t just effect the people that were directly exposed to it, but instead passed down generations with long lasting effects. The interview is a casual setting where Douglas talks about how his childhood was growing up with parents who were a residential school and how it may have influenced his life differently from regular people. He also talks about how his cultured is lost but he and his family still try to connect with it as much as they can.
