The Sixties Scoop separated her from her culture. Love brought it back to her: After the Sixties Scoop took her from her family and home in Buffalo Narrows, Darlene Petit grew up learning little about her Métis and Indigenous heritage. That changed when she met Mervin Petit. They now share their love of the land, hunting and fishing with others. #SixtiesScoop #IndigenousHeritage #MétisCulture #CulturalReconnection #LoveOfTheLand

Residential schools. The 60s Scoop. The Indian Adoption Project. Foster care today. Same mission, different paperwork. Two hundred years of trying to erase who they are. #SilenceIsBetrayal #MMIP #SixtiesScoop

A 1973 internal memo awarded a government supervisor Salesperson of the Year — for removing the most Native children from their families. It was a performance contest. These were real children. #SilenceIsBetrayal #SixtiesScoop

Canada went from a $5B Indian Residential Schools settlement to almost $70B in related payouts. Now a wave of Métis litigation has begun. The government should challenge these claims in court, not back down with negotiated payouts. #Canada #Indigenous #ResidentialSchools #SixtiesScoop #Métis #Policy

Last night I caught part of a miniseries on @pbs.org called Little Bird. It's based on a true story about the "sixties scoop" of indigenous children from their families in Canada.

Highly recommend you check it out. Grab some tissues. 💔 #littlebird #genocide #sixtiesscoop #indigenous #PBS
