Awakenings ― We Were Always Here ― Acknowledgment (A film by Jonathan Elliott, 2020)

Описание: From exploring the Indigenous origins of the city’s name, to the murder of a Mississauga chief that nearly caused all-out war, “Acknowledgment” sheds light on how Indigenous people’s lives and histories have shaped Toronto’s origins and asks the question; in this era of reconciliation, how do we acknowledge our collective history?
