Join us virtually to celebrate the publication of Coast Salish Elder Raymond Tony Charlie's new book, In the Shadow of the Red Brick Building (Askew Creek, 2022). In the book, Ray Tony shares his personal story as a residential school survivor and his journey to healing.

As a child, Ray Tony attended both Kuper Island (now Penelakut Island) residential school and St. Mary’s residential school in Mission, B.C. His new book is one of several ways that he has patiently shared his struggles and healing journey to help people understand what really happened at these institutions, and to support others in their own healing.

Please join us as we stand with Ray Tony Charlie to celebrate his accomplishment as a new author and to acknowledge the journey he took to get there. Penelakut Elder Florence James and her son Rocky James will also stand with Ray Tony as relatives and to offer cultural support at the event.
