Kallie Wood is a First Nations’ ‘60s Scoop
Child.
“I
was taken at birth and assimilated and adopted into white culture,” said Wood,
Aboriginal director at Caronport High School and Briercrest College and Seminary.
“I guess I feel very humbled and very blessed with the life that I’ve had as
far as having opportunity to basically live both sides of the coin. So I was
raised in a white environment but am First Nation.”
She
added that her experiences have made her a “more caring and giving” person
regarding “the care and candor that you have going forward and to have a better
understanding and the forgiveness of people for their stories.”
