Adapted for the Alberta context from the KAIROS Blanket Exercise, an interactive learning experience focusing on the historical and contemporary relationship between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples of Canada. Themes explored are: assimilation, discrimination, Indigenous rights and reconciliation.
This folder contains a large number of articles, mainly by Mrs. Wetton, describing Native people, their way of life, and problems they were experiencing in the post-contact period. Only a portion of the articles and two brochures were scanned, however there are many articles that contain multiple photographs and interpretations of how Aboriginal people lived on reserves in the 1940s, 50s and 60s.
