A large crowd of participants at the Intergenerational March to commemorate Orange Shirt Day at UBC. The group is gathered on a grassy hillside, with many wearing orange shirts to honor Indigenous children who were sent to residential schools in Canada. The setting is lush with tall grasses in the foreground and trees surrounding the area, evoking a sense of collective remembrance.
