The anonymity of the undocumented grave itself is an offence, a final indignity

News of the discovery of the graves brought to mind a work by Hans Jonas, the Jewish philosopher who explored the human spirit in the aftermath of the Shoah.Jonas noted that human beings make three things that set them apart from all other animals: the tool, the image and the grave. The grave is a uniquely human construction.Mortality and Morality: A Search for Good After Auschwitz

The death of children grieves us more intensely precisely because the possibilities of being are cut short; “not-being” has arrived too soon. Ancient pagan cultures already knew that. Certainly every religious culture knows that. And most certainly the Catholic priests of the Missionary Oblates of Mary Immaculate, who operated the Kamloops school for most of its existence, knew that. All the more shame then belongs to those who consigned the little ones to unmarked graves. It was a monumental dereliction of basic human, to say nothing of Christian, duty.

Can this horror not be found at almost every Indian school, it has to be investigated and the Catholic Church has to hand over all records

215 Children Murdered by Cultural Genocide Schools in Canada run by the Queen of England and the Catholic Church. Change my mind don’t me.

Exactly

Canadians 🇨🇦 were a bunch of cave people as many others around the 🌎 those days.... what’s unforgivable is that similar atrocities continue to happen these days...

Catholic churches and their land in Canada should be sold off for reparations to First Nations. Priests can conduct their masses on Zoom as far as I'm concerned.

JTs father was Justice Min 1967-68, PM & ldr LPC 1968 - 1984, Opposition Ldr 1979 - 1980. 15 yrs & 164 dys makes PET Cda's 3rd longest-serving PM. They all knew, including PCs. BC Govt Libs, CP, Social Credit, NDP are guilty. Crim invest on politicians, public service & church.

UBC mulls rescinding degree given to principal of Kamloops residential schoolCommittee plans to consult with Indigenous communities, academics on legacy of John Fergus O’Grady, the former bishop of Prince George Nothing to “mull”. Do it! Oh, and rescind his high school diploma take his drivers license away. Seriously? Unless, of course, the UBC is accepting responsibility for his education having contributed to his actions. Perhaps it should search for his professors and fire them posthumously. Universities are expected to set moral examples for the society, only timely quick action can deliver the full value of the rescind - any hesitancy or delay greatly reduces the power of the message.
