The last day of September, Tyson got ready for school, only to find that his Mom wanted him to wear a different shirt. An orange shirt Tyson wasn't very happy about it, so his Mom had to explain just why it was important that on September 30th he wore orange.In Canada, for over a hundred years, Indigenous children were sent away to be educated in what is now known as the Indian Residential School System. Devised by the government, to 'kill the Indian in the child', these schools were often miles and miles from where they child's family resided.
