Destroying the Native American Cultures
Map Collections 1500-2004
Today, people see the policies of the past with 21st century eyes. One might wonder how the nation's indigenous population became "inferior" cultures in their own land, or how a nation could have committed such atrocities in the name of "progress". One might question whether it is acceptable to make national decisions without involving in the decision making process those who will be most drastically affected.

44. Listening To Native Americans - John Barry Ryan
I knew this intellectually, but in listening to native americans I understand more for other native American traditions what I was doing for the navajo.

Listening to Native Americans:
Making Peace with the Past for the Future
John Barry Ryan
John Barry Ryan is Professor of Religious Studies and a member of the Peace Studies faculty at Manhattan College. His research interests include liturgical studies and American Indian religions. It is a Native American tradition to introduce oneself before one speaks. In that spirit, I begin with some steps in my own journey of listening to Native Americans. I acknowledge at the outset that for most of my life I did not listen, maybe could not listen. But for a decade now, I have been attempting to listen to Native Americans. "Attempting" is the appropriate word because I am very much aware that I bring preconceptions, hardheadedness, and lack of attention to the conversation. Even worse, Native Americans have taught me that I carry a much heavier burden. I view the world from the conqueror's point of view, which informs everything I do. I knew this intellectually, but in listening to Native Americans I understand more concretely and in some detail what it means. I only dared propose a course on Native American Religions because I had researched Navajo prayer forms for two papers that I presented, one in 1985 at the annual meeting of the North American Academy of Liturgy and the other in 1991 at the biannual meeting of

50. History Of Native Americans In Utah
A History of native American indians in Utah, from the Utah History Encyclopedia.Written by David Rich Lewis.
http://www.onlineutah.com/indianhistory.shtml
History of Native Americans in Utah Taken from the Utah History Encyclopedia NATIVE AMERICANS IN UTAH Long before Euro-Americans entered the Great Basin, substantial numbers of people lived within the present boundaries of Utah. Archaeological reconstructions suggest human habitation stretching back some 12,000 years. The earliest known inhabitants were members of what has been termed the Desert Archaic Culturenomadic hunter-gatherers with developed basketry, flaked-stem stone tools, and implements of wood and bone. They inhabited the region between 10,000 B.C. and A.D. 400. These peoples moved in extended family units, hunting small game and gathering the periodically abundant seeds and roots in a slightly more cool and moist Great Basin environment. About A.D. 400, the Fremont Culture began to emerge in northern and eastern Utah out of this Desert tradition. The Fremont peoples retained many Desert hunting-gathering characteristics yet also incorporated a maize-bean-squash horticultural component by A.D. 800-900. They lived in masonry structures and made sophisticated basketry, pottery, and clay figurines for ceremonial purposes. Intrusive Numic peoples displaced or absorbed the Fremont sometime after A.D. 1000. Beginning in A.D. 400, the

Native American Studies
When Europeans, Africans, and Asians arrived in America, they needed to verse themselves in Native American Studies in order to survive. For example, Jacques Cartier learned from the Wyandots along the St. Lawrence River how to cure scurvy, and the Pilgrims were taught how to plant corn, squash, and beans by Tsquantum (Squanto). At first, most nonnative peoples were interested in American Indian Studies, but after the colonial period, their descendants discounted the discipline, emphasizing the "civilized" curriculum of Western Europe. Native American Studies was ignored by nonnatives for several hundred years, until political movements of African Americans, Chicanos, and American Indians in the 1960s rekindled an interest in the field. Students demanded that institutions of higher learning offer courses in Native American Studies. As a result of political pressure from students and community activists, colleges and universities created Native American Studies programs. Immediately, the issue arose as to the focus of the new courses: were they to foster an American Indian identity, focusing on native students and their needs, or were they to provide a general education for all students? Most programs did both, with teachers generally encouraging all students to take those courses dealing with Native American history, culture, religion, music, art, and literature. Unfortunately, in nearly all cases Native American Studies did not receive adequate academic or financial support from faculty or administrators.

    Native Americans
    This article by Carol Otis Hurst first appeared in the Library Corner column of Teaching K-8 Magazine The study of Native American people and their cultures is a challenge because of the stereotypes that exist, not only in the literature, but in our own minds and in those of the children we teach. Not long ago I was working with children in a school on the east coast and told them I had just come from working with Indian children in North Dakota. They were sure I was telling another story since, they said, "There aren't any more Indians. We killed them all." Hard to believe such things in today's world of television and world wide communication, but I'm sure these children were not unique in their ignorance. Many studies of Indians leave students convinced that all Indians lived in tepees then and still do or that they were all wiped out, not that our ancestors didn't try.
