Stuck in Limbo

I learned about First Nations peoples and reconciliation in Grade 10 and I just could not comprehend the injustices that Aboriginal Peoples went through in the past and that they continue to go through. In doing this historical piece of writing, I hoped to learn more about the state of Aboriginal Peoples today and what we can do to help raise awareness to their plight, and give them an equal place in society.
