# [Including Indigenous Voices in K-12 Classrooms](https://facingcanada.facinghistory.org/including-indigenous-voices-in-k-12-classrooms)

*In a talk titled, [What is Reconciliation](https://www.facinghistory.org/resource-library/video/what-reconciliation), Chair of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, Senator Justice Murray Sinclair, reflects:*

*“It took us a long time to get to this point, in terms of the relationship between Aboriginal people and this country.  Seven generations of children went through the residential schools. And each of those children who were educated were told that their lives were not as good as the lives of non-Aboriginal people of this country.  They were told that their languages and culture were irrelevant...at the same time that was going on, non-Aboriginal children...were also being told the same thing...  So as a result, many generations of children...have been raised to think about things...in a way that is negative when it comes to Aboriginal people.  We need to change that.” *

*Including Indigenous voices, worldviews and resources into classrooms throughout Canada is an essential part of that change.  In doing so, it is equally essential to bring a breadth of  resources into classrooms  so students encounter a diversity and depth of  lived experiences.  The following post, written by Ontario Institute of Studies in Education librarian, Desmond Wong, helps us to do that.*

# [The Best of the Blogs: 2013](https://facingcanada.facinghistory.org/the-best-of-the-blogs-2013/)

 Posted by [Ben Gross](https://facingcanada.facinghistory.org/author/ben-gross) on December 15, 2013

As the end of the calendar year quickly creeps up on us, the Facing History blogging team decided to discuss the future and, while talking about the future, we reminisced about the past. We thought about what a great year of sharing and learning it has been. We decided that to celebrate this year of blogging we wanted to share with our readers the posts, voices, and teaching ideas that made us pause, think, and reflect – on history and on ourselves. Over the next few days we will be sharing our favorite posts and undiscovered gems from our [LANetwork](http://lanetwork.facinghistory.org/) Blog out of Los Angeles, our [OnNetwork](http://onnetwork.facinghistory.org/) Blog here in Toronto, and our [InterFacing](http://tech.facinghistory.org/) Blog, which focuses on the intersection of technology and education. Thank you for joining us on the blogs over the last 12 months. We hope these gems of wisdom and practice from the past help you reflect on your own year that was, and be sure to subscribe to this blog to make sure you see the Best of 2013, meet the new bloggers, and read exciting new posts in 2014! Happy New Year from all of us here in the Toronto Office of Facing History and Ourselves.
