About
Join us for a special movie presentation, and learn more about Indigenous children and human rights in Canada.

This is Alanis Obomsawin's 52nd film and tells the story of how the life of Jordan River Anderson initiated a battle for the right of First Nations and Inuit children to receive the same standard of social, health and educational services as the rest of the Canadian population.
