November is Native American Heritage Month! During National Native American Heritage Month, we honor the history, rich cultures, and vast contributions of our Native peoples. We celebrate the hundreds of Tribal Nations that are ushering in a new era in our Nation-to-Nation relationships, tribal sovereignty and self-determination. Our Indigenous peoples’ history in the United States is defined by strength, survival, and a deep commitment and pride in our heritage, right to self-governance, and ways of life. Native people have built and sustained powerful Tribal Nations and indigenous knowledge. However, our Nation’s failed policies subjected generations of Native people to cruelty, violence, and intimidation. The Government forced removal of Native peoples from our homes and ancestral homelands; attempted to assimilate entire generations; and stripping of our tribal identities, cultures, and traditions are some of the darkest chapters of our Nation’s history. The trauma and turmoil fundamentally altered our tribal communities. We as Indigenous peoples have persisted and survived — a testament to our resilience. Today, Native communities are leading the way forward. We have long served in the United States military and currently serve in the highest levels of government. In every field and sector, Our Native people are pushing for progress and contributing to our shared prosperity. #indigenousknowledge #november #nativeamericanheritagemonth #wearestillhere
