“For Love” Film Screening

September 28, 2023 @ 12:30 pm - 3:00 pm

Free

Join IRSHDC for another film screening on September 28! We will be showing “For Love”, written and produced by Mary Teegee.

“For Love” is a film of resilience and resurgence. Colonization has led to many adverse impacts on the Indigenous population of Canada – most significantly on familial and societal structures. Due to colonial regimes, Indigenous children are vastly overrepresented in the child welfare system. In 2018, the Minister of Indigenous Affairs deemed the issue “a humanitarian crisis”.

Traveling across the country, Indigenous people tell their heartbreaking stories to reveal the atrocities inflicted by the Canadian child welfare system. The film shines a light on what is happening right now.

The screening will take place on THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, from 12:30-3pm. Space is limited. RSVP to ensure your sea
