Shingwauk and Beyond: Survivor and Intergenerational Memories
This series of oral histories includes discussions of the lived experiences of Residential School Survivors and Intergenerational Survivors. Listening to videos relating to Residential Schools can be distressing. A national Indian Residential School Crisis Line has been set up to provide support for survivors and those affected.

Project History
The “Shingwauk and Beyond: Survivor and Intergenerational Memories” project was created to increase access to Indigenous documentary heritage of Northern Ontario by documenting the lives of Shingwauk Survivors beyond their experiences in Residential School. The Shingwauk and Beyond project was carried out by Living History Algoma in partnership with the Shingwauk Residential Schools Centre from 2020-2022. During this time, Hailey Buckley interviewed over 30 Survivor and intergenerational Survivors of Shingwauk about their lives.
