Mt. Pleasant Indian Industrial School – June 1st
What if attendance had been voluntary?
What if the adults ha been kind?
What if they had taught more academics
and the trade skills had been apprenticeships?
How many more could’ve survived?
How many might have thrived?
What if the social experiment had been denied?
(Where was IRB?)
What if the native students could’ve taught
their language, their customs, their ways?
What if it had been both/and?
