DARC is proud to present My Indian Name for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

My “Indian” Name is a one-hour documentary that takes a look at how having their traditional names stripped away from them has impacted Indigenous peoples. Without their original names, people are often left trying to find how they fit in this world. Luckily today, steps are being taken to reclaim their basic right to their true names.

DARC is proud to present SGaawaay K’uuna (Edge of The Knife) for the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.
