Native American Heritage Month

"Words are the most powerful shaping tool," writes Rez Life author David Treuer, a member of the Ojibwe tribe. "Writing, speech, language don't just communicate fact, they create fact." To celebrate and share their cultures with the rest of the country and to make sure that the facts communicated are indeed facts, the First Nations Development Institute has put together a suggested-reading list: http://www.firstnations.org/Books
   The organization has also compiled a list of meaningful quotes by Native Americans and recommended movies and documentaries: http://www.firstnations.org/HeritageMonth
