Julian Brave NoiseCat's Survival Story
Julian Brave NoiseCat, son of an Indigenous Canadian father and white mother, shares his personal and ancestral survival story.
After experiencing cultural genocide, NoiseCat notes that living one's life becomes an existential question. His new memoir, We Survived the Night, delves into this theme.
My family never talked about it, and my father didn't really know the specifics around what happened when he was born and how he was found.
Julian's father, Ed Archie NoiseCat, was abandoned as a newborn and found by staff at St. Joseph's Mission School for Indigenous Canadians, just minutes before being burned with the garbage.
Julian only learned the full story of his father's birth as an adult, having previously heard what he thought were ghost stories about babies being discarded at the mission.
Author's summary: Julian Brave NoiseCat shares his story of survival and ancestral heritage.
