Little Bird, los niños robados

I binge watched this series last night. This is by far, the best series I've watched in a long time. I was fortunate enough to work up in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory for just under five years. This gave me the opportunity to work side by side with the First Nation people and learn all about their culture.

This series depicts the terrible actions against them. The actors were brilliant and following the story was really interesting and compelling viewing.

For many people who do not know about this shameful part of Canadian history, I ask that you please watch this series. I recognised a couple of the actors from other shows.

Amazing film making.

I don't think I rated any of the episodes above 8, but the whole package deserves an almost perfect score of 9 for me. Shows the pain we inflicted upon the native residents of 'our' countries*, without shoving inherited guilt in our faces. Made by and with natives who experienced the events depicted.

* (I say 'we/our' as many of the comments feel this is just about Canada - when we Americans did worse in almost every respect). As an evangelical Christian, I understand and support missionary activity. However, this could have (and nowadays is) done without force. Natives have much more respect for the Earth and we could certainly learn from that, among other things.

Heartbreaking series that was incredibly well done. There were many parts that were tough to watch but as a white member of a family who was given one of the sixty scoop children, it was important for me to not look away. I never got to meet my uncle as he followed a similar path to a main character in this story. This is a story that is still relevant today as there are more children being removed from their families than ever before. All Canadians should take this time to confront this dark side of Canadian history. I hope that this series touches the hearts of everyone who watches it as it did mind.

It was certainly very, very emotional. Beautifully presented by the first-nation actors, who themselves must have been deeply moved by the storyline.

I was teary-eyed. I was seething and railing against the evil system and the police as they were portrayed. How could this have happened and possibly still is happening?

The series needs to be shown in every school to demonstrate the plight of less fortunate people (in many countries, I'm sure) and the wickedness of people who are supposed to care for and protect society. I'm sure that I will be moved by each heart-tugging scene in each episode.

This one this close to home. This show portrays what generations of Canadians have kept it quiet. The show is so well done and the acting is so good I found myself crying at how bad my country treated their natives.

I've never seen any of the actors on the show before and they are all insanely good. The story makes it justice and it's hard to see things that happen in history but it needs to be done.

I would recommend anyone, US and Canada mainly to show that our country isn't as great as we think it is.

It's so heartbreaking and so important to make history into shows because we need to learn from our mistakes .
