- Louise Hall's Residential schools experience 1963-1964
- My first memory of the horrors of a residential school was when the nuns had forced us to take off our clothes and wash ourself. "Wash off that brown skin" She would say. The soap they gave burned, burned away my skin but it also burned away my culture. All the kids cried. No one would tell us everything would be okay.
- I was taken away to a residential school at the age of 5. I missed my family a lot.
- Wash Yourself till that brown skin comes off because god doesn't like brown skin!
- One day I found out about the Indian Movement. They were standing up for what the believed and against the injustices. I decided to be more like them and I picked my hair in braids and put a little feather in my hair. It wasn't much but I was standing up for myself and my culture.

I thought to myself " You can't hurt me anymore"
- I am a first nation and I'm proud of it and I will stand up for it, my family it was a single mom and it was always her and I. I made a promise to her that you will never have to feel she's not worthy.
- YOU CAN'T HURT US ANYMORE!
