Children Left Behind: The Dark Legacy of Indian Mission Boarding schools is told by author Tim Giago who attended boarding school. Through this book he examines the relationship between the church and the government that resulted in the destruction of culture, language, and spirituality for Native American children all over the United States. Giago notes that Indian Country must acknowledge the truth about what happened at boarding schools, and only then can families and communities begin to heal.
