Kettle and Stony Point First Nation

This article explores the intersection of Indigenous language revitalization and digital archival resources, in the context of ongoing efforts to preserve and share the histories of Indian Day Schools in Canada. The Indian Day School system is a lesser known but significant part of the country’s colonial history, which subjected Indigenous children to cultural assimilation and abuse. This research highlights the importance of integrating Indigenous languages into digital storytelling as a means of reclaiming cultural heritage and fostering intergenerational healing. We emphasize the need for collaborative efforts among Indigenous communities, scholars, educators, and technology experts to build ethically responsible and culturally sensitive digital resources that celebrate Indigenous languages and honour the resilience of Indian Day School survivors. Ultimately, this article calls for greater recognition of Indigenous knowledge systems and the integration of technology as a catalyst for Indigenous language preservation and cultural resurgence
