Glad this group got to meet with us while in Washington! – at Washington, DC
Replying to @BureauIndianEdu
@BureauIndianEdu was happy to host students from #RiversideIndianSchool in Anadarko, Okla. who participated in the @CloseUp_DC program. The students spoke to BIE senior leaders, visited the #HallofTribalNations and saw the D.C. skyline from the #DOI rooftop.

Y'all I'm getting a little tired of people listing every POC group except for Native Americans when we talk about diversity and inclusion in any industry. Take the extra time. It's important.

Students from Sherman High School in Riverside, CA, who are in the Future Farmers of America program traveled to the Indio Fair for the first time to showcase their goats and lambs. Several students placed in different categories. Congratulations to this group! #FFA #NativeEd

I want #NathanPhillips to be the only name that's remembered from today's ugliness. Nathan Phillips. Not the horde of bland, frightened, forgettable kids who'll grow up to be bland, frightened, forgotten adult wastes. Nathan. Phillips.

The Native American who apparently was being mocked by teens wearing MAGA hats in a viral video says he has "fear for those youth, fear for their future, fear for their souls, their spirit, what they're going to do to this country."

For all the right reasons, you don’t dress up in black face or white face or Middle Eastern guy. You don’t play Asian or Mexican or Arab man. But one race, one people, is still marketed as okay. Shame on ⁦@PartyCity⁩ and every racist-trope Halloween store like it.
