North Dakota updates textbooks on Native history

North Dakota has partnered with five tribal nations to revise textbooks on Native American history, aiming to replace materials that have been in use for over 30 years. The updated curriculum will be available for the upcoming school year in state-owned schools. This initiative is part of a broader effort to ensure that Native American perspectives are accurately represented in educational resources. The revised textbooks will provide students with a more comprehensive understanding of Native history and culture.
