Orange shirt day : September 30th / Phyllis Webstad & the Orange Shirt Society.
"This award-winning book explores a number of important topics including the historical, generational, and continual impacts of Residential Schools on Indigenous Peoples, the journey of the Orange Shirt Day movement, and how you can effectively participate in the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation. With end of chapter reflection questions and a series of student art submissions, readers are guided to explore how they, and others, view and participate in Residential School reconciliation" -- page [4] of cover.
On her first day at Residential School, Phyllis Webstad was forced to take off her shiny orange shirt. The shirt was taken away and never returned. Orange Shirt Day was inspired by Phyllis Webstad's story. By wearing an orange shirt on Orange Shirt Day you are helping to send a message that Residential Schools were wrong, and that every child matters.
