Make America's History Inclusive

Dear President Obama,

Your work regarding diversity in the United States, as well as globally, is well-recognized. Now, it is time to address America’s native people by doing what you can do to get Congress to legislate a bill to require American native studies on all school curriculums. This way, America’s infrastructure will take on strength by providing a vehicle for all Americans to learn about Native Americans.

We’ve gassed up the Prius here in Colorado. We’ve made a couple of short films about the Sand Creek Massacre, which gives viewers an in-depth view about how this tragedy effects America’s indigenous people today, 145 years after the massacre. It continues to effect their abilities to live productive lives in America. Poverty, disease, drug and alcohol abuse, etc., prey on America’s native people.

Ignorance caused the Sand Creek Massacre. Racial prejudice permeates America of its native people. This can be changed. But, we need your help. Put us together with Congress so that we can get a bill passed that will require American Native studies on all school curriculums. When this is achieved, it is then, and only then that the ignorance will begin to fade away in young minds, and be replaced with an awareness of America’s indigenous people that does not now exist.

Please contact me with your interest. Thank you for your consideration.

Best Regards,

Let’s add to this to include history of ALL the people who made America what it is.  “Black History” is American history.  Let’s stop separating everything and teach the truth in the American schools.
