The Marrow Thieves is an incredibly well-crafted story that shows non-Indigenous Canadians the harm that we have caused and continue to cause through systemic racism. The inter-generational trauma of residential schools, the loss of language and culture, the use of First Nations’ land and bodies: this has all happened before and it’s happening now. As people who benefit from colonialism, it’s our duty to call for change, to work towards reconciliation and to make sure that Indigenous Lives Matter. We cannot let The Marrow Thieves become our future.
