15:08Now PlayingRecent discoveries of hundreds of unmarked graves of native children in Canadian church-operated schools alarmed the United States. A new wave of investigations into similar boarding schools in America has begun. In the US, Alaskan Native and Indigenous children were routinely separated from their families, including their tribal customs and languages. Students were frequently deprived of adequate food and medical care to the point that many perished. The student's parents were often not informed of their deaths until they were already buried in the school cemeteries in unmarked graves. Deb Haaland, Secretary of the Interior, was compelled to write about her family's experience in the United States after hearing about the remains of 215 Indigenous children found in Canada. Haaland is also the first Native American to serve the United States as a Cabinet Secretary. Samuel Torres, Director for the National Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition, a private group formed to focus attention on the traumas caused by the institution, stated that church apologies are a good start. However, "there is a lot more to be done."
