Residential Schools and Indigenous Peoples provides an extended
multi-country focus on the transnational phenomenon of genocide of
Indigenous peoples through residential schooling. It analyses how
such abusive systems were legitimised and positioned as benevolent
during the late nineteenth century and examines Indigenous and
non-Indigenous agency in the possibilities for process of truth,
restitution, reconciliation, and reclamation. The book examines the
immediate and legacy effects that residential schooling had on
Indigenous children who were removed from their families and
communities in order to be 'educated' away from their 'savage'
backgrounds, into the 'civilised' ways of the colonising societies.
It brings together Indigenous and non-Indigenous authors from
Aotearoa/New Zealand, Australia, Greenland, Ireland, Norway, the
United Kingdom, and the United States in telling the stories of
what happened to Indigenous peoples as a result of the interring of
Indigenous children in residential schools. This unique book will
appeal to academics, researchers, and postgraduate students in the
fields of Indigenous studies, the history of education and
comparative education.
