Accurate Tribal Map in every school
Donation protected
It has been my dream since I was a young kid to bring more awareness to Americans about our country's Indigenous peoples. Through my Tribal Nations Maps-which contain the most amount of Tribal Nations ever placed on a map (over 900), using traditional and given names-, I have seen this dream begin to take shape, with the maps entering schools across the U.S. and Canada. I would like to realize this dream even further by mailing my map of US Tribes to every one of the 339 high school principals in the State of Virginia. As Virginia was one of the first states to be occupied by settlers, I feel this is a good place to start. Depending on the success of this campaign, I may spread this to every public achool in Virginia (there are 2,093 of them) in the future, and even on to every school in the United States. A big dream, I know !
I often receive pictures from teachers and parents who use my Tribal maps in the classroom or at home, and it reminds me why preserving Native history is so important. It is important for all Americans to see just how many Nations existed here pre-contact, and to understand the current lives and struggles of Native Americans today.
Thank you for taking the time to consider spreading these maps to every school!-Aaron
