Grappling With the History of Native American Boarding Schools in California and Beyond

For more than 100 years, the U.S. government forcibly relocated tens of thousands of Native American children to boarding schools under a federal assimilation program meant to suppress their languages, beliefs and identities. Historians estimate that by the early 20th century, more than three-quarters of all Native children attended one of more than 350 re-education schools, including an estimated 10 in California.

We'll talk about the painful legacy of indigenous boarding schools in California and nationally.see more
