President Biden will deliver an historic apology to the survivors and families of America’s Indian Boarding School era. Children stolen, forced to assimilate, language beaten out of them, abuse and neglect of every kind. An American genocide to be reckoned with, finally. Taking you back to three years ago when I had the privilege of covering the repatriation of nine Lakota children who were marched far from home to attend the Carlisle Indian Boarding School in Pennsylvania & died before they ever made it back. Their return into the womb of their homelands of the Rosebud Sioux Nation was one of the most powerful ceremonies I’ve ever witnessed. Generations lost. Generations broken. But the new generation, the one they couldn’t extinguish, rises in healing and reclamation.

Absolutely classic!
The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and California Suite won her Oscars, but this line reading from Downton Abbey made her iconic. RIP to the great Maggie Smith.

Well said. “As the curtain comes down on a national treasure, we join all those around the world in remembering with the fondest admiration and affection her many great performances and her warmth and wit that shone through both on and off the stage.” #DameMaggieSmith
