November is Native American Heritage Month. The month is an acknowledgment of the resiliency of Indigenous Peoples through art, culture, food, music, tradition, and well-being.
We celebrate the contribution and impact Indigenous Peoples have had on global perspectives from time immemorial to the present day. This month creates the opportunity to empower future generations to embrace, educate, and engage in dialogue regarding the Indigenous ways of life.
