The full picture is even more heart breaking after you open the uncropped version. Just a heads-up, it's rough
“The Roman Catholic Parish in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan was just grafitted.”
Nah let’s post it. Let’s feel it. Don’t look away.
I notice alot of my followers on here skipping these posts just to mess with my lgbt ones, suspiciously the white popular ones.
Heres a not so friendly reminder, as an lgbt metis person, i dont give a single fuck what your blog is themed or if this is too painful for you to look at. Reblog this post. Reblog this post with the sources of the 751 children who were found.
Your compliance and silence as well as the compliance and silence of your ancestors is what allowed these schools to open and kill first nations children. The children of MY people.
Dont follow me if you cant reblog this post or the one with sources to your political blog or your most popular blog. Add trigger warnings if you must but if your political blog is only focused on the harms you personally face like being lgbt then you need to see some bigger pictures and stop being afraid of angering your racist mutural or actually saying some shit about racism. If you can reblog some antifa graphics or add blm to your bio to be a surface level ally, you can reblog some sources on the genocide first nations people faced and still face today.
They were CHILDREN.
They were murdered in cold blood.
[ID: A tweet by @ IBJIYONGI that reads: Holy words: “We were children.”
Attached is a news article by CBC Canadian News titled “Saskatoon Canadian cathedral covered with paint after discovery of 751 unmarked graves.” An attached image shows red hand prints on the walls and door of the building, along with the words “we were children.”
@ CurlyCheddar replied in a tweet that reads: I guess I understand the message but I’m not sure why the artist went with Halloween spook-o-rama walking dead hand prints. Really bad. Could be made a little better if the prints were child-sized and didn’t go above the height of a child but whatever not the point I guess.
@ IguanodoneComics replied: sorry us natives grieving the loss of almost a thousand of our own isn’t artistically satisfying enough for you. /end ID]
[ID: The full image of the graffitied cathedral shows red paint dripping down the front steps and two pairs of children’s shoes and stuffed animals.
Another image shows the same cathedral after the red paint had been washed off. There is a paper sign on the doors put there by those from the Catholic cathedral that reads “we are sorry”. Someone has written on the sign “sorry does not cut it.” There are other signs left on the steps with red handprints. Some of the signs say “thou shalt not steal”, “thou shalt not kill”, “truth before reconciliation”, and “you can’t wash us away”. Another pair of children’s shoes and a stuffed animal have been left on the steps. End ID]
