This month, in honor of Native American Heritage Month we're reading Code Talker: A Novel About  the Navajo Marines of World War II by Jospeh Bruchac. 

We're meeting Monday, November, 23rd @ 7:00 pm (EST) to discuss it! Happy reading!]]> 2020-11-02 19:23:24 UTC https://padlet.com/clinger/harvestdinner/wish/883756353 Recipes lasley1 https://padlet.com/clinger/harvestdinner/wish/887298693 This is more fun than educational, but does anyone have an fall recipes that they particularly like, or ones that you make every year?

I recently found this recipe for nutella stuffed pumpkin chocolate chip cookies which was pretty easy to make (although time consuming) and the cookies themselves were an wonderful fall treat. ]]> 2020-11-03 18:22:35 UTC https://padlet.com/clinger/harvestdinner/wish/887298693 Indigenous and Native American Influencers & Creators schallho https://padlet.com/clinger/harvestdinner/wish/890837200 Social media sites like Instagram and TikTok have become platforms for many Indigenous and Native American folks to share their culture and history with the public. Content creators, artisans, activists, and advocacy projects have seized the opportunity to create vibrant communities, educating viewers on social and economic justice, showing everyday life on a reservation, and connecting with others in Indigenous and Native American communities. The platforms have also been a way to highlight the diversity of backgrounds, experiences, traditions, and interests across Native American and Indigenous communities.

Given that November is Indigenous Persons Month, I am looking for some books to read that would be educational/appropriate/fun.

I have read some biographies, fiction and history for the month already but am always looking for more!

Any suggestions on authors, or works?]]> 2020-11-22 18:43:40 UTC https://padlet.com/clinger/harvestdinner/wish/950184732
