 We saw The Little Singer last night. It's an indigenous community school named after a little fellow who always sang. The children in the past were taken from their communities and sent to boarding schools where they were beaten and raped and often killed and buried behing the school with no grave markers. That was after the outright genocide. In the indigenous school they sang songs and learned their original language, but the world was terribly changed, their land was stolen and the mining companies poisoned the water and brought cancer to the community. It's so fucking sad how the settlers stole the land and killed the people and it keeps going on yet life continues in whatever way life can.
