Hopefully, by telling his story he is able to come to terms with what happened to him in Residential School including the sexual, physical, and emotional abuse. Canadians can benefit from hearing his story because that way we can keep the atrocities of what happened in Residential Schools alive and not forget our history.  It is easy to think that the effects of Residential Schools are in the past but because of stories like this we can move forward with the Truths of the past and hopefully Reconcile in the future.]]> 2018-12-02 23:25:19 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/310237303 k_spilchuk https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/310238413 One connection that I made while watching the movie was the gender inequalities of Residential School.  I couldn't help but wonder if Rebecca could have also made a connection with hockey if she would have been allowed to play.  As a female hockey player, I found that playing hockey relieved stress and helped me refocus my energy.  I wonder if Rebecca had been allowed to play hockey if that would have helped her work through her sister's death in a healthier way.

Which also brings us to how the referees favoured the settlers teams, but if an indigenous person were to fight back they’d be sent into the penalty box or be kicked out of the game. Which of course was racist.

Even though his parents raised him half Indigenous and half white. Saul shows the importance of family by staying with his grandma even when she was deceased.

The purpose this serves is that Saul made a change and made people think differently about him. Just because he isn’t “white” doesn’t mean he isn’t as good as anybody else. The Canadians who heard his story mad them think about “indigenous” people different. They thought First Nation people cant play hockey but it changed when they heard his story.]]> 2018-12-06 20:31:45 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312031759 chloemack20 https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312031838 the purpose it serves for Saul is closure. By talking about his experience, people can help fix the lasting memories and and help him deal with his trauma in good and helathy ways. All Canadians can benefit listening to his story by knowing what kind of things happened in Residential School.

The indigenous people have to play in there own league and everybody thinks that’s the white teams are better and they were surprised when they seen that the indigenous people could actually skate.

Everyone who went to a hockey game with indigenous players started to “boo” them and not show any support for them whatsoever.  This shows that white people didn’t care about any of the indigenous people because they’d were seen as less.

The power is within them, and the power they give each other. An example of that is when Saul encouraged his friend to keep going and that it would all be ok. Power is also represented in the Priests and Nuns. In one scene during “Indian Horse” the priest we all thought was incredible, we later find out he raped Saul. That was the power he held over Saul and will continue to be the power that hangs over Saul his whole life.]]> 2018-12-06 20:34:17 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312032826 tyranj https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312033185 There is many ways they show power, the bar fight and then peeing on them, forcing them to do things in residential school.

Perhaps by him telling his story he can over come his experience at Residental School. Especially dealing with his sexual abuse, emotional abuse and any other past experiences he’s had. Canadians benefit from hearing Residental School stories and Saul Indian horse’s story by recognizing our past mistakes and not forgetting our history. It keeps reminding us of all the traumas and lives that our past selves have traumatized, taunted or even ended.

All Canadians can benefit from hearing his story by remembering the acts that were committed by our own government and we also need to recognize that WE did that not someone else our own ancestors, Canadians can also connect to this story more because the majority of our population enjoys hockey and that spot plays a big role in the movie.

The doctor said that if he drank anymore he would die. he then went to his old Residential School and had flashbacks of his sexual assault. Those memories will last forever.

They both play the same sport the same way but non-aboriginal people seem to think that they’re better then aboriginal people and start treating them like there trash, even when Saul was on the same team as the settlers they didn’t except him as there team member or really, as a person. So because of this experience that Saul had, he quit his dream and got into a very bad stage in life that made people think even less of him.

The purpose of his story was to tell all people especially indigenous and non-indigenous people on what horrible things when wrong in the past, not just how Indians got treated in the schools but how they got treated in actual everyday life. Like when Saul was playing for the settlers hockey team but they didn’t treat him as a team member they treated him as a “savage Indian”. People need to know what happened in Canadian history.]]> 2018-12-06 20:49:46 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312038338 blakeursan44 https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312038389 It serves that Saul Indian Horse, should tell his story not only for how he got treated in residential schools, but also for some parts of kindness that some of the sisters and fathers showed. Canadians should listen too how some of the first nations people became hockey fans or players. Or how some people have been through alot too just too become who they are today. Alot of people would call Sulivan a miracle kid.]]> 2018-12-06 20:49:55 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312038389 birtlesbailey https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312038583 Saul shows the importance of family and friends by when he had the chance to play in the “big leagues” but he ended up coming back to his friends.  Culture is also very important, Saul shows this when the residentals schools tried taking their culture away but saul still kept his culture.]]> 2018-12-06 20:50:29 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312038583 venomxgaming https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312038871 The game of hockey in the film Indian horse , is like a glimps into Canadian settler and indigenous relations because of the fact that because even knowing during that time of racism and brutality , it rather brought hope. Hockey for both Canadian and Indians were important because they were able to connect through all of that , and even knowing Indian hockey players were still trashed. Yes alot of violence has occurred, but between Canadian and Indians there was promise of , education , sports , and other things !

It was important for Saul to tell his story because it truly brought a new aspect to Indian lives during the residential schools. It showed us that even if your able , to escape the pain , the silence and the agony the memory stays with you and can even cause PTSD ( post traumatic stress disorder). It’s important for Canadians to hear and remember his story and the atrocities that were committed by the schools and the priests because we need to learn from it. Canadians as a whole we did a really terrible thing. We constantly hurt innocent people and turned them into depressed and even suicidal and sometimes even homicidal people. We needed to hear so we can do better in the future. 

The movie Indian horse has shown us the love , the respect and the traditions and culture of the indigenous people in ways like how they’ve spoken. They mention , the river and everything , and how Indians God’s and goddesses fished and raised the land. We were told of there traditions and what they did as a culture to hopefully , bring an understanding and try to get rid of , any chance of residential schools coming back. The life long consequences of the schools and what’s they did were traumatizing. It caused suicides , homicides , and many more. Through the atrocities , it showed us the importance of a culture Because each culture brings a significant touch to city and we shouldn’t destroy good culture. 


In the movie power is represented by the  priests and nuns. These people had 100% control over the Indians actions and thoughts and how they speak. They would control what sports and what people did what. A few examples of this is how when the nun punished sauls friend for not knowing English’s and demanded him to speak “ properly” such things continue throughout the movieuntil Saul goes to plays hockey for the moose. Another example of power is when the priest and nun kept taking the little Girl away from this other girl and said the girl should be clinging to god and not to her. A final example of power was when the priest made Saul suck his 🤬 which represented physical power , over Saul as in ways of “ payment”. The Toronto monarchs which was the new team Saul was drafted too had power cause they were known as big and controls where and what players are on the ice. 

One connection that hasn’t been talked about was the after affect of when Saul was on a team for hockey , when it was shown that people specifically targeted Saul based on nationality ( Indian). it was also shown that people actually attacked , Saul and his friends because of who they are as a whole. It was not really talked about because maybe it wasn’t that important but I think it’s a connection that should have been discussed and I’m glad I said it!

Saul took it into his own hands and chose to do something he loves even though he wasn’t supposed to.

The teachers at the school noticed he was to young and small to play but that didn’t stop him from trying.

When Saul went to live with some else to play with the moose he became apart of their family and it is important that’s they remember their cultures and language after the residential school and pass their culture on to the next generation.

It starts by Sauls mother having power over his brother and deciding to take him to Residental School without complaint. Then the priests and nuns had power over all the “Indians” over every single thing they did. They couldn’t have long hair, they had to be washed and de-liced, the girls couldn’t play hockey, and the boys had to be old enough to play as well. The Priests and nuns had complete and total power over all indigenous kids. Power is also displayed by the drunken settlers in the bar saying the “Indians” could not eat or hangout there or else they’d have to fight them for it. It’s also displayed from when the settlers peed on the “indians“ because they could. The power everyone is using, they aren’t using it for good. They are using it in a foul and racist way.]]> 2018-12-06 20:54:18 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312040032 jaidenthur https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312040083 It shows the importance of native culture in a couple of ways.

But near the very ending, it shows that he wasnt doing it for a good deed, the father let him do it because sulivan was doing a very sexual act for him.

There’s two types of power I see in the movie, good and bad. Good is when Saul had the power to teach himself hockey everyday and had the power to persuade the teachers to allow him to play hockey, he had the power to chase his dream and play. Bad is when the settlers used their power to abuse the children in every way they could think of.

The team competing with the Monarchs was in favour. They were body checking, pushing, shoving, and playing unfairly. When Saul had enough he shoved a player back and got sent to the penalty box. Something that the other team had never received. And then following that when Saul knocked another player out for shoving/ body checking he got kicked out of the game.

It’s because they been all through this stuff and they trying to survive that’s where they have powers. Saul has powers because he teaches himself hockey and he became the best player.

Before the schools, the First Nations people we’re loving life, hunting, fishing and dancing. But the whites take that all away. During the residential schools when sully first got there. He was treated no less than a human. But when he started too grow up around the age of nine or ten. A father built a hockey rink for the older kids. Sully couldnt play, but than he asked too clean the rink every morning. He did so and got too play hockey. This teaches that indigenous people can do just as much as white people.

All these Indigenous kids were being taken away from their families, no white folks tried to help and say that it was wrong, instead they stood by and let it happen. Another example is how at the bar after the Moose’s won the hockey game these white men approached them. The white men beat their captain up and no one tried to stop him, not even the rest of the team.

An example is the residential school and the students that attended, the staff had complete control over the students and they tell them what they can and can’t do. Another example is when Saul was playing hockey, the coach never penalized a white player when he deserved it but he penalized Saul when he didn’t really do anything to be penalized. The other hockey players also trampled over him in every game, sometimes even his own team never supported him, they only tried to bring him down and make him feel like garbage.

I think this is a good example because it represents the relations between Indigenous people when they were kicked off their land by Settlers.]]> 2018-12-08 05:06:33 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312463961 RileyHanson https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312464201 Saul shows the importance of family when he stays with his grandmother after she passes away. He also shows this when he attempts to keep his rock that his brother gave him but the Nuns took it away. He showed respect to the Toronto hockey team even though they didn't respect him. Saul also appreciated the white team that adopted him and showed affection to them.]]> 2018-12-08 05:14:53 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312464201 RileyHanson https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312464664 The power is represented throughout the entire movie. The priests and Nuns had control over the Indigenous children in the residential schools, they were not allowed to speak their own language. Physical force was used to "teach" the Indigenous children, and being raped was a common thing. The men at the bar who made the Indigenous people fight was a great example of power.]]> 2018-12-08 05:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312464664 RileyHanson https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312465013 A comment that isnt being discussed is during the bar fight some of the white settlers weren't even paying attention to the situation which made it seem like a regular occurrence. This shows how racism was also a regular occurrence]]> 2018-12-08 05:37:37 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312465013 tyranj https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312782057 It tells us what things were like back then. Not only with culture but sports and everything. It also represents how aboriginal people were treated and it was unfair to them. We benefit from hearing this to make change and be better]]> 2018-12-10 06:03:03 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312782057 tyranj https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312782365 “Indian Horse” shows that they never gave up on eachother and that everyone around them was family to them. They all had their own ways from their families and they all have their own story of how their families were split. But some made new families with friends because of this]]> 2018-12-10 06:05:25 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/312782365 https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/315694470 In my interpretation, the idea of putting the sport hockey in the film is to show the cultural divide between the indigenous people and the settlers. The crowd was a parallel to society's bigot opinion about the Indigenous people. The crowd being very unpleasant and gate keeping Saul to play hockey is similar to the bias that favors first nations not getting jobs because of their ethnicity.]]> 2018-12-18 20:22:12 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/315694470 https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/315696840 It is very much important for the story to come from Saul perspective because it makes it more heartfelt due to it being his own experience and expressed by his own emotions. Furthermore, it is better that Saul told his story than it being passed second hand and told by non indigenous person. Canadians can learn to be more respectful and to be more appropriate from Saul's story. Additionally, people can look back and learn to be more open minded and change for better when hearing his experiences.

To add furthermore, Saul's parents leaving led him to be confused or lost similar to what happened late in the movie when he left his "new family" to join the Toronto Maple Leafs. ]]> 2018-12-18 20:37:09 UTC https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/315699452 https://padlet.com/pinfold_savannah/vv30f374kdfj/wish/315701717 Power was presented through Saul's actions and choices. Saul's will to play hockey even though he was being stereotyped and being given handicaps indicate that power can be gained through experience and having a good mindset. Saul also showed great deal of power when he met Father Gaston and not show any act of violence even though Father Gaston sexually assaulted him. Finally, Power was illustrated when Saul told his story and picked himself back up.
