  • What Really Happened at Indian Boarding Schools?
    Jul 7 2022

    The discovery of mass graves at Indian boarding schools showed how little we understand about these institutions, so I invited a leading expert on Native American education to help me understand.

    ---

    In this episode, Dr. John Gram mentions the following books:

    -Education for Extinction: American Indians and the Boarding School Experience, by David Wallace Adams

    -Boarding School Seasons: American Indian Families, 1900-1940, by Brenda J. Child

    -They Called It Prairie Light: The Story of Chilocco Indian School, by K. Tsianina Lomawaima

     

    And you can find Dr. John Gram's very useful history website here.

    As always, the wonderful music is the song 'Ezekial,' and it comes to us courtesy of Christine Hand. Check it out.
