Today the Tour for Humanity visited a new community, the town of Espanola southwest of Sudbury. This town has the distinction of being home to the Domtar paper mill and its presence could be smelled throughout the area. Even so, Friends of Simon Wiesenthal Center (FSWC) Educator Elena really enjoyed working in the community, in no small part due to the very warm welcome she received from the school. They have been trying to arrange a Tour for Humanity visit since the first time they heard about the program in Sudbury more than a year ago. Elena worked with students from Grades 9-12. Elena ran three workshops of the Canadian Experience and three of Global Perspectives on Genocide. The students were generally quiet but very attentive. Roughly one third of the students at the school were First Nations and this added a more personal understanding of the Residential School System for many. All of the students at the school knew about two residential schools that were open in the nearby town of Spanish until the 1960s and one teacher told Elena that several of the students who sat through the workshop had family members who had been forced to attend. According to staff and students, the school buildings continued to be used until 1998 (although were not at that time run by the same administration). After reading about the Spanish Residential Schools online, Elena was also thankful to have a conversation with the last teacher of the day, who herself is First Nations, and shared with Elena that her husband is a residential school survivor. She commented that she has seen some of the lasting effects of the trauma he experienced in their children and grandchildren. She was very complimentary of the program and said that she appreciated the fact that we speak to Indigenous history in Canada in addition to other human rights abuses.
