Returning to the Highest Chief: Life after Residential School - Hardcover
Description
by Mary Jane Joe (Author)
Life after leaving Kamloops Indian Residential School resulted in a period of deep depression until Mary Jane visited her grandmother Ya-yeh at her cabin in the hills at the Meadows. Mary Jane survived the school's strict regime by acting as a robot, becoming numb to feelings, hopes and dreams. However, Ya-yeh welcomed her granddaughter and reminded her about what is most important in Ntle'kepmx tradition, that of becoming thankful to the High Chief on a daily basis, thereby reconnecting a lost, broken-spirited girl back to humanity.
