Our Spirits Don’t Speak English: Indian Boarding School

A Native American perspective on Indian Boarding Schools, this film uncovers the dark history of U.S. Government policy which took Indian children from their homes, forced them into boarding schools, and enacted a policy of educating them in the ways of Western Society. It gives a voice to the countless Indian children forced through a system designed to strip them of their Native American culture, heritage and traditions.
Chip Richie, 80 min., 2008, English, USA.
