It’s my hope that the truth of our history travels the world over. It should continue to dominate international headlines.

When archaeologists detected what they believed to be 200 unmarked graves at an old Canadian school, it brought attention to one of the most shameful eras of Canada’s history. Sunday, @andersoncooper reports on residential schools where over 150,000 indigenous children were sent.

The big story today and there is a lot of competition is that teenagers across America signed up for tickets to a Presidential event with no intention of showing up and it resulted in the most embarrassing Presidential event I can ever remember.

On the 1 year anniversary of the @MMIWG final report: Take a moment to thank the thousands of survivors, families, Elders, community members who came forward to share their stories. So many families shared their deepest pain and asked for justice.
