First Light documents these practices from the 1800s to today and tells the story of an unprecedented experiment in truth-telling and healing for Wabanaki people and child welfare workers in Maine.

In 2015 the Maine Wabanaki-State Child Welfare Truth and Reconciliation Commission concluded that Native people in Maine continue to be targets of "cultural genocide." The commission is the topic of a documentary film, Dawnland, currently in postproduction and slated for release in early 2018.

The American Indian Cultural Support organization is dedicated to preserving our various Nations sovereignty, legal rights, lands, and cultures.

We do this in many ways, but one of those ways is to assist with making living conditions better. When we can, we supply food, clothing, school supplies, arts and crafts supplies in order to meet the minimum daily needs of existence and to encourage education/learning.

Our continuing goals are to make the public aware of the needs of our people and the injustices which attempt to strip away our sovereignty, cultures and lands. To increase public awareness of demeaning Mascots used by the media and sports industry and to affect changes in these areas. ]]> 2017-12-01 14:53:11 UTC https://padlet.com/tweston1/IndigenousPeoples/wish/212284768 The Carlisle Indian Industrial School: Assimilation with Education after the Indian Wars skoch8 https://padlet.com/tweston1/IndigenousPeoples/wish/212285703 Includes Lesson Plan]]> 2017-12-01 14:54:49 UTC https://padlet.com/tweston1/IndigenousPeoples/wish/212285703 Pueblo of Zuni website ecolton22 https://padlet.com/tweston1/IndigenousPeoples/wish/212286409 2017-12-01 14:56:10 UTC https://padlet.com/tweston1/IndigenousPeoples/wish/212286409 Survival Schools:The American Indian Movement and Community Education in the Twin Cities by Julie Davis skoch8 https://padlet.com/tweston1/IndigenousPeoples/wish/212286661 The first history of two alternative schools founded by AIM in the Twin Cities in 1972—and their role in revitalizing Native culture and community

In 1972, motivated by prejudice in the child welfare system and hostility in the public schools, AIM organizers and local Native parents started their own community school. The story of these schools, unfolding through the voices of activists, teachers, and families, is also a history of AIM’s founding and community organizing—and evidence of its long-term effect on Indian people’s lives.
