Teaching American Indian History
August 4, 2019 @ 9:30 am - 11:30 am
Do our public schools teach historically accurate depictions of American Indians? Ryan Dial-Stanley, a member of the Lumbee tribe, will discuss what education should depict. Leslie Locklear was originally scheduled to speak, but had to step aside. She recommended her colleague Mr. Dial-Stanley who is also quite knowledgeable about this issue, and works with her to inform the public of the problem. You can find out more about the problem via this recent article in the News and Observer: https://www.newsobserver.com/news/local/article228639074.html.
