Canada Day 2017 video - Duration: 5:47.Hi I'm Kylie Brooks, my sign name is [shows sign name].
I want to talk about today, Canada Day.
I want to acknowledge this land before I do that.
I am a Black African and I live in Toronto.
It is Indigenous land
under the One Dish One Spoon wampum treaty.
The specific nations are:
Mississaugas of the New Credit First Nation
Anishinaabe
Haudenosaunee
So, on the topic of Canada Day...
To Indigenous people, Canada Day represents
the intentional oppression that they have went through from Canada
for 150+ years since 1867, when Canada was founded
I want to briefly discuss one of those awful experiences,
but there are many more, just to be clear.
Residential schools:
Canada decided to set these up
for Indigenous kids so that they would become white people,
and then there would be no Indigenous people anymore.
As such, Indigenous kids were forced to go to these schools,
and there they experienced things including but not limited to these three:
They were required to only speak English or French
Their clothes from their cultures got replaced with new clothes
They got new names in English or French
Also, very little was expected of the kids
They were abused all the time.
They learned very little compared to non-Indigenous people.
The schools were intentionally underfunded.
The kids were used as scientific experiments
- they were starved, for instance.
The last residental school closed in 1996.
Seriously.
I was born in 1991,
so that school closed when I was 5 years old.
Again, this is only one of many wrongs from Canada against Indigenous peoples.
Please take the time to learn about what Indigenous people experience
and what they want changed.
And take action to support Indigenous people.
Thanks for watching, ILY! Bye.

Young
We were so young when we thought that we knew how to love
Fought about anything, everything led to dysfunction
But we just gotta own that shit
Don't let it go like this
Maybe we can grow from this, yeah
We both know I go too far like when I wrecked your car
And almost fought your father when he pushed me in the yard
And all those nights we snuck out, like to meet up at the bar
Don't worry, my love, we're learning to love
But it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Caught
We were caught up in the high, it was better than drugs
Too high to see that it would all lead to destruction
At least we both know that shit
We just gotta own that shit
I hope that we can grow from this, yeah
We both know I go too far like when I wrecked your car
And almost fought your father when he pushed me in the yard
And all those nights we snuck out, like to meet up at the bar
Don't worry, my love, we're learning to love
But it's hard when you're young
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
Say what you want, but it's hard when you're young
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
You say what you want, but it's hard when you're young
We both know I go too far like when I wrecked your car
And almost fought your father when he pushed me in the yard
And all those nights we snuck out, like to meet up at the bar
Don't worry, my love, we're learning to love
But it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
Yeah, it's hard when you're young
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
Say what you want, but it's hard when you're young
I'm calling you up, you tell me it's over
You say what you want, but it's hard when you're young
