The Healthy Aboriginal Men's Circle Drum Group invites the Burlington community to acknowledge Orange Shirt Day. This day acknowledges that "INDIAN" residential schools are a part of our history. Wearing an orange shirt is a national movement to recognize the experience of those who went to Indian residential schools, to honour them, THE VICTIMS AND SURVIVORS, and to show a collective commitment to HONOUR THE VICTIMS AND THE SURVIVORS. TO ENSURE THAT THESE ATROCITIES WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN.. !
