## Resource

Over 360 Native American boarding school survivors have shared harrowing testimonies across 19 states, documenting decades of abuse and forced assimilation — a powerful oral history project poised to enter the Library of Congress. Born from a collaboration between the Healing Coalition and the Department of the Interior, this initiative builds on Deb Haaland’s Road to Healing tour and responds to federal findings of devastating intergenerational trauma, including nearly 1,000 newly discovered unmarked graves. For survivors like 74-year-old Mad Plume, speaking out has brought long-overdue closure and healing, supported by on-site therapy and quiet spaces. As the project nears completion, plans are underway with the Smithsonian to share these videos — always under survivor control — while the coalition looks to expand, ensuring future generations understand the full scope of this painful history and its enduring legacy.
