Unknown Story
Öykü Penceresi Metni
- Why are you taking my clothes?!
- Phyllis Webstad was six years old, she was sent to the Mission School near Williams Lake. Her very first memory of that first day at the Mission school was that of having all her clothes taken away, including a brand new orange shirt her grandmother gave her
- When Phyllis was 13, and in grade 8, she had her first child, a boy named Jeremy.
- With the help of her aunt, Agness Jack, She was able to raise her boy and have him know her as his mother.
- When she was 27, Phyllis attended a treatment centre for healing. I went to a treatment centre for healing when I was 27 and have been on this healing journey since then. I finally get it, that the feeling of worthlessness and insignificance, ingrained in me from my first day at the mission, affected the way I lived my life for many years.
- I am honored to be able to tell my story so that others may benefit and understand, and maybe other survivors will feel comfortable enough to share their stories.
- TodayShe is the Founder and Ambassador of the Orange Shirt Society, and tours the country telling her story and raising awareness about the impacts of the residential school system. She has now published two books, the Orange Shirt Story and Phyllis's Orange Shirt for younger children.
- Orange shirt day symbolizes the forced assimilation of Indigenous children that the residential school system enforced. It was created n 2013 and has since been a day where we honour the children who were sent away to residential schools in Canada
