We welcome you to the Indian Residential School History and Dialogue Centre.

The records on our site emerge from the cultural and physical genocide that the Canadian government and churches conducted through the Indian Residential School System, including the ongoing impacts.

Bearing witness to these records may become overwhelming. If you are a Survivor or an Intergenerational Survivor and would like support, you can call the 24-hour National Indian Residential School Crisis Line at:

Description
"This book is a photo journal of the special relationship between the horse and the Okanagan people. Included are stories from Okanagan oral tradition, Okanagan Elders' statements, and stories about the people and events depicted in the photographs. Photographs date from the late 1800s to the 1990s; most date from the first half of the twentieth century. All photos are from Okanagan collections. With the exception of some rodeo photographs, virtually all pictures were taken through the lenses of cameras operated by Okanagan Nation members."--Publisher
