Extractions: "M y earliest memories of Red Lake have a storybook quality," wrote Ojibway artist Patrick DesJarlait. "I remember beautiful pure white snow. There were acres of forest lands on the reservation and the clear blue lakes held almost every kind of Minnesota fish. Nature provided a perfect setting for a young Indian growing up. I spent many hours of my childhood wandering through the woods, either by myself or with my friends. And in the forests that surrounded my home, I found the animals and woodland scenes that became the subjects of my first drawings." A s a little boy growing up on the Red Lake Indian Reservation, he was called Na-gwa-bo Boy in the Woods. He was given this name because he could always be found in the woods, always alone, and either quietly sketching or thinking. Patrick DesJarlait found beauty in his surroundings. He found beauty in the faces of his people. He found beauty in their way of life. He found beauty where he was not supposed to find it. In boarding school, where his Indian name was taken away, his teachers told him repeatedly there was no value in an Indian way of life. He did not listen. He continued to sketch the woodlands, the animal-beings and the people he came to know so well. T he DesJarlait family consisted of his parents and four brothers and two sisters. Patrick's father worked as a woodcutter for the Red Lake Lumber Mill. His mother died when he was seven. After this very sad event in his life, he spent much of his time in boarding schools at Red lake and Pipestone, Minnesota. He did not begin to think seriously of taking up a career in art until he entered higfh school. At Red Lake High School, he became a student of Miss Ross, an English teacher. She encouraged his interest in art. She even purchased special supplies for him on her trips to the cities.

Photos, teaching resource listing, reservations map. $3.50. No ISBN This special issue of the twice-yearly magazine provides a good overview of Ojibwe life and culture at about the time Minnesota Indians were being forced onto reservations. An initial essay is drawn by Gilman from the thoughtful and colorful autobiography of Way-quah-gishig (John Rogers of the White Earth reservation. Another essay describes the effects of th Dawes Allotment Act, with a map that shows the checkerboarding of Leech Lake (once a part of what had been intended to be the larger White Earth), where 90% of the land has been lost either to private purchasers or to state and U.S. Forest Service land. It's one of the better presentations on this shameful and important aspect of American history for young people. For on-reservation life, the total control of the Indian (Bureau of Indian Affairs) agent a power so easily and so often abused is shown. There is a short essay about how the agents arrested the Beaulieu brothrs and seized the printing presses and issues of the first Indian newspaper, the White Earth

Extractions: Courtesy of Pipestone County Museum and National Register Collection In 1892, the first Pipestone Indian School building was finished. Children began arriving from all over the Midwest from such tribes as the Dakota, Oneida, Pottawatomie, Arickarree, Sac and Fox. As was typical of federal Indian vocational schools, students usually spent half their day in the classroom and the other half learning occupations such as farming, blacksmithing, masonry, carpentry, cooking, baking, and nursing. The training of students in these industrial skills was resented by many Indians who saw this essentially as menial chores. As government programs changed, funding decreased, and the role of the Indian school diminished until 1953 when the school was closed. When Southwestern Vocational Technical Institute opened in 1976, nearly all of the original Indian School buildings were removed or destroyed. However, the Superintendent's Residence survived and was used as a private residence until 1983. Since that time the building has been the property of Minnesota West Community College (although the name has been changed several times) and used for storage.

The enclosed remarks must not go unchallenged by the people of Minnesota. Numerous historical facts and documents will be presented at this press conference to prove Ms. Yecke's comments as blatant lies and uneducated remarks. Ms. Yecke must be educated about the truth of American history and its policies of spiritual, political, cultural and physical genocide of the Indigenous people of the United States and Canada and, indeed, the entire Western Hemisphere. Many denominations of organized religions have already made public apologies for their collusion in these genocidal policies, including the Pope on his visit to Canada a few years ago.

Pioneer Institute For Public Policy Research If the answer is yes, boarding schools become a vehicle for it. If all works out, minnesota will have three boarding schools running within the next two http://www.pioneerinstitute.org/research/dialogues/dia25.cfm
Extractions: On May 5, 1998, Pioneer Institute celebrated its tenth anniversary with the inaugural Lovett C. Peters Lecture in Public Policy. Governor Arne H. Carlson of Minnesota delivered the keynote address. In 1997 Governor Carlson, with bipartisan support, pushed through the most comprehensive education reform in the nation despite fierce union opposition. He spoke of the critical need to improve education for America's children, and how Minnesota is working to do just that. His reform package included expanded education tax deductions, creation of tax credits for lower income families, expansion of charter schools, and site-based financing. In the following pages, Pioneer has reproduced an edited transcript of the speech. It is no longer a question of a handful of kids "slipping through the cracks." Now, one in three kids is failing basic skills tests in reading and math. That equals fourteen million American children. Think about the enormous potential drag on our economic growth. Education and faulty outcomes are not separate. In Minnesota we had always prided ourselves on being a great educational state. We thought that we would always rank in the top three or four states in America. When you looked at the ACTs and the SATs of those kids that were going to college, we did extraordinarily well. We were always at or right next to the top. We had also had a law that forbade statewide testing. To figure out what was happening to those kids who did not take the SATs and the ACTs, we had to contract out and do sporadic spot testing. The results were astounding. Over a third of our kids at the eighth grade level could not pass basic math and basic reading. Minnesotans were shocked. But Minnesota's results correlate with the national numbers, which indicate that 31 percent of our students are not graduating from high school. Thirty-nine percent are not passing at the eighth-grade math level, and 38 percent are not passing at the fourth-grade reading level. When we looked at Minnesota's two largest cities, Minneapolis and St. Paul, we found that 59 percent of our students overall were not cutting it at the eighth-grade level in either math or reading. And half of the students would not be graduating.
