"Recent nationwide interest in Indian boarding schools and the resultant on-going historical trauma was instigated by the finding of 200 unmarked graves of Indigenous children at the Kamloops Residential School in British Columbia, Canada. In this presentation I will discuss my research of the Old Leupp Boarding School historic site and recent research of Federal Indian boarding schools by both Native and non-Native archaeologists."
