{"product_id":"0889227411-they_called_me_number_one","title":"They Called Me Number One","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eLike Native Children Forced By Law To Attend Schools Across Canada And The United States, Sellars And Other Students Of St. Joseph's Mission Were Allowed Home Only For Two Months In The Summer And For Two Weeks At Christmas. The Rest Of The Year They Lived, Worked, And Studied At The School. St. Joseph's Mission Is The Site Of The Controversial And Well-publicized Sex-related Offences Of Bishop Hubert O'connor, Which Took Place During Sellars's Student Days, Between 1962 And 1967, When O'connor Was The School Principal. After The School's Closure, Those Who Had Been Forced To Attend Came From Surrounding Reserves And Smashed Windows, Tore Doors And Cabinets From The Wall, And Broke Anything That Could Be Broken. Overnight Their Anger Turned A Site Of Shameful Memory Into A Pile Of Rubble. In This Frank And Poignant Memoir, Sellars Breaks Her Silence About The Institution's Lasting Effects, And Eloquently Articulates Her Own Path To Healing.--from Publisher's Website.
