North Dakota updates Native American textbooks with tribal input
Education leaders in North Dakota are completing an updated series of Native American history books for schools, according to KXNET. As Buffalo’s Fire previously reported, the project revises four textbooks first published between the 1990s and 2002 and adds a fifth volume featuring the Sisseton Wahpeton Oyate. United Tribes Technical College will print the books this fall for distribution to schools, libraries and tribal colleges across the state.

As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we exist to illuminate tribal government for everyone who cares about transparency in Native issues. Our work bridges the gap left by tribal-controlled media and non-Native, extractive journalism, providing the insights necessary for truly informed decision-making and a better quality of life. Because the consequences of restricted press freedom affect our communities every day, our trauma-informed reporting is rooted in a deep, firsthand expertise.
