American Indians & Alaska Natives (Englishen_US)

The rich and diverse cultures and traditions of Native American Indians and Alaska Natives not only constitute an important contribution to American history, they are vital to life in the United States today. November is American Indian & Alaska Native Heritage Month in the United States. This collection celebrates these "original" Americans, from their art and complex role in the growth of the U.S., to the Navajo code talkers of World War II, and prospects for higher education and economic progress today. Great background for post celebrations of this heritage, in November and throughout the year.
