The Highway of Tears

Students from the ‘Na Aksa Gyilak’yoo School in Kitsumkalum First Nation created this music video about missing and murdered indigenous women.

The Highway of Tears refers to a 724 km length of Yellowhead Highway 16 that runs between Prince George and Prince Rupert, British Columbia, where many indigenous women have been killed or disappeared. There are twenty-three First Nations communities that border the Highway of Tears.

The Highway of Tears is part of a larger, national crisis of missing and murdered Indigenous women and girls.
