Little Bird

I don't think I rated any of the episodes above 8, but the whole package deserves an almost perfect score of 9 for me. Shows the pain we inflicted upon the native residents of 'our' countries*, without shoving inherited guilt in our faces. Made by and with natives who experienced the events depicted.

* (I say 'we/our' as many of the comments feel this is just about Canada - when we Americans did worse in almost every respect). As an evangelical Christian, I understand and support missionary activity. However, this could have (and nowadays is) done without force. Natives have much more respect for the Earth and we could certainly learn from that, among other things.

This is a story that should be shown in High School. These poor communities having families ripped apart and their children kidnapped. I can't believe it took so long to be addressed by USA and Canada.

I'm a Canadian who was adopted through proper channels in the fifties as a baby. The First Nations children were forced to speak English and had to adapt to Christen ways. Even I know a lot of the story I still had many tissue moments and felt sick.

This was a fabulous series and I think it should be up for awards. The scenery, music and story were top notch . The clothing were on point for the time.

Thought Little Bird the best drama I have seen for ages. An horrific story that is beautifully acted and produced, with the inclusion of music from indigenous artists adding to the powerful reality. Coming from a country where the colonised indigenous people are still fighting for better health care, more educational opportunities and generally are less prosperous than the non-indigenous population, made this story more meaningful. The appalling treatment in Canada of the indigenous people is told here with balance and makes a real impact on one. I highly recommend this drama and praise the Producers, Directors and actors for their outstanding work.

I binge watched this series last night. This is by far, the best series I've watched in a long time. I was fortunate enough to work up in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory for just under five years. This gave me the opportunity to work side by side with the First Nation people and learn all about their culture.

This series depicts the terrible actions against them. The actors were brilliant and following the story was really interesting and compelling viewing.

For many people who do not know about this shameful part of Canadian history, I ask that you please watch this series. I recognised a couple of the actors from other shows.

Amazing film making.

Heartbreaking series that was incredibly well done. There were many parts that were tough to watch but as a white member of a family who was given one of the sixty scoop children, it was important for me to not look away. I never got to meet my uncle as he followed a similar path to a main character in this story. This is a story that is still relevant today as there are more children being removed from their families than ever before. All Canadians should take this time to confront this dark side of Canadian history. I hope that this series touches the hearts of everyone who watches it as it did mind.
