TAPECODE 3034.01

Native control of Native education, that is the motivating idea of The Learning Path. Director Loretta Todd introduces the viewer to three remarkable educators who are leading younger Natives along The Learning Path. The women recount the experiences at residential school that fueled their determination to preserve their languages and identities. We see them at work in the schools of Edmonton and the nearby Saddle Lake Reserve.
