8th Fire: Indigenous in the City, is part of a documentary series describing the challenges Aboriginal people face when moving to large cities from reserves. The documentary begins by describing the stereotypes that Anglo-Canadians and other minority groups perceive as Aboriginal people. They show how harmful stereotypes are to First Nations, especially in the education sector. The documentary concludes by offering some solutions on how to change and improve the relationship between the Aboriginal community and the rest of Canada. The two main aspects of the film that I will focus my analysis on are the education system from past to present and the negative impacts it has had on the First Nation population, as well as Aboriginal stereotypes. These two themes were the most important topics raised in the film, and while one topic was well argued and framed, the other, as I argue, was more harmful than educational. I should say that as my ethnicity is Aboriginal, Métis in particular, I was extremely critical of the film because although these issues need to be addressed publicly, if they are presented in the wrong light, they can cause more negative implications than positives. Although the film mentioned the impact that residential schools had and still have on Aboriginal people, I felt this issue needed to be highlighted further because the legacy of the schools is still extremely important in Aboriginal communities today. The film refers to the fact that residential schools harmed Aboriginal people because they were unable to learn their culture, which led to the formation of internalized oppression within the group. “The... center of the paper......t Kids Docs Radio TV.
