Two Scoops
Anishinabe and multidisciplinary artist Jackie Traverse uses hand-drawn animation to punctuate a touching personal story about the 1960s’ “scoop” of Aboriginal children – an unofficial policy of the Government of Canada that saw thousands of Aboriginal children removed from their families and adopted into non-Aboriginal homes. The policy continued the legacy of culture loss and family disintegration that began with the earlier residential schools.
