Call Me Indian: From the Trauma of Residential School to Becoming the NHL's First Treaty Indigenous Player

Description

Fred Sasakamoose, torn from his home at the age of seven, endured the horrors of residential school for a decade before becoming one of 120 players in the most elite hockey league in the world. He has been heralded as the first Indigenous player with Treaty status in the NHL. Sasakamoose's story was far from over once his NHL days concluded. He continued to play for another decade in leagues around Western Canada. He became a band councillor, served as Chief, and established athletic programs for kids. He paved a way for youth to find solace and meaning in sports for generations to come. Threaded through these impressive accomplishments were periods of heartbreak and unimaginable tragedy - as well as moments of passion and great joy.
