Orange Shirt Day
Orange Shirt Day is a legacy of the St. Joseph Mission (SJM) residential school
commemoration event held in Williams Lake, BC, Canada, in May 2013. It
grew out of Phyllis' story of having her shiny new orange shirt taken
away on her first day of school at the Mission, and it has become an opportunity
to keep the discussion on all aspects of residential schools happening
annually. Hear Phyllis’ story below.
The date was chosen because it is the time of year in which children were taken
from their homes to residential schools, and because it is an opportunity to set
the stage for anti-racism and anti-bullying policies for the coming school year. It
also gives teachers time to plan events that will include children, as we want to
ensure that we are passing the story and learning on to the next generations.
