A link to the article by historian Ian Mosby, “Administering Colonial Science: Nutrition Research and Human Biomedical Experimentation in Aboriginal Communities and Residential Schools.”
“For those of you interested in reading the full text article by historian Ian Mosby on how Canada, on finding that Indigenous adults in communities and Indigenous children in residential schools were starving, decided to use them as a base line for nutritional experimentation. The last page of his article connects those actions with our responsibilities as a nation and as settlers for justice in the present.”
