We invite you to participate in a thoughtful webinar presented by members of the Kentucky Native American Heritage Commission. This session will explore the importance of honoring Indigenous lands while illuminating the challenges faced by Native Americans throughout the country, and in particular Kentucky, which are often compounded by a lack of awareness and resources. Our presenters will share a concise overview of their regional Native history within the broader context of Indigenous histories across the United States. Together we will thoughtfully examine and deconstruct prevalent myths, stereotypes, and misconceptions that influence perceptions of Native peoples in North America. Additionally, we will discuss effective strategies for addressing these inaccuracies in educational settings, fostering a more informed and inclusive classroom environment.
