Elder Betty Ross Part 2: We Stand Together

Elder Betty Ross advocates for Indigenous rights and preserving Indigenous culture and language. From Cross Lake First Nation, Elder Ross has experienced the residential school system with her story inspiring the book Sugar Falls: A Residential School Story.

We Stand Together

U Multicultural acknowledges that we are located on Treaty 1 Territory, the original lands of Anishinaabeg, Cree, Oji-Cree, Dakota, and Dene Peoples, and on the homeland of the Métis Nation.

"We Stand Together" is a series to understand better these schools' history and its impact on Indigenous communities. Join Ryan Funk and Lisa Muswagon and listen to the stories and experiences of residential school attendees and their families.

This project has been made possible by the Government of Canada through Canadian Heritage.
