About
Tony Stevenson’s presentation portrays a meaningful, emotionally charged message. The accounts of the residential school survivors are expertly shown. As students and residents of Canada who have never experienced such an atrocity, the reality of residential school abuse is difficult to comprehend. Through Tony's presentation we will be exposed to the uncensored truth. It is pertinent that people be exposed to real, tangible, uncensored, and raw accounts of residential school abuse from people who have experienced it. Mr. Stevenson’s presentation is eye-opening and forces the audience to reflect on their privileges, the importance of uncensored residential school abuse education, and the “hush-hush” attitude evident in school systems today.
