Produced by Sprouts.

Chief Golden Light Eagle from the Yankton Reservation in South Dakota tells the story of how he and thousands of Native American children were separated from their parents and lived in terror at the Marty Indian School in Marty, SD, run by the Catholic Church. Some did not survive the violence inflicted on them by the priests and nuns. Although attempts to bring the state and the church to justice have failed so far, activist and attorney Michelle Dephene-Echols explains the legal history and the bill she recently proposed to the SD legislature, in hopes of creating a window of opportunity for the survivors of the school to file suit. Finally, Dephene-Echols discusses connections between abuse at the boarding school and Nazis.
