But we haven't spoken as much as a culture around how the same is true for Native people. And again, it's that undertone of disappearance that this isn't even a conversation that we're having. But Native people are, as you mentioned, disproportionately represented both in interactions with the police, but also in incarceration.

And the same is true of Native youth who are also more likely to be incarcerated in federal facilities than that don't have as many juvenile services and where they can be subject to things that are inappropriate for any human being, but certainly developmentally inappropriate, such as solitary confinement.

This is a term that Erica Miners developed to talk about the ways that, you know, when we think about things like enslavement, when we think about things like war on Native peoples, we often have a very masculine image of what that violence looks like. We imagine armies of men out in the fields fighting with people. We imagine cruel slave masters as, you know, men whipping and beating people.

But it's important to point out that at the time One of the ways that sexism and patriarchy impacted women was that white women were held to be subservient to their husbands. To men, they were not equal partners. But at the same time, they were still given the ability to enact these forms of violence against those that were socially lower than them.

And so in the case of slavery, that meant sometimes women slaveholders who were very violent and enacted their own forms of punishment and retribution were against enslaved people.

And in terms of the education field, that means that sometimes there are white women who were sent out to be teachers with the express purpose of saying, we're going to defeat barbarism, that Native people and Black people are savages, and that they need us to teach them Christianity. Without us, they're going to descend into sin.

And so the idea here is that what calls itself charity, what calls itself benevolence can actually be a form of extreme cultural erasure that, again, serves the purpose of a state that wanted people's land, that wanted people's bodies. I think it's important to remember that your racial background or your gender background is in no way determinative of the kind of educator you become.

They're amazing educators and teachers that love children and uplift them and support them from all backgrounds.

But really what this history is teaching us is what does it look like to celebrate and support young people where they come from, to celebrate and support the communities that love them and nurture them, and to not feel like that's something that we have to beat out of them or replace with something else that we see as being culturally superior.

I think that this is a time when there are people in power who want us to turn away from ugly history, from difficult history, and in some cases, act like it never happened. This book is filled with direct quotations, archival documents, and resources that show people saying really awful and challenging things in their own words. It's not my interpretation or something that I made up.
