Subject: Re: Native American Websites
 
From: Larry Cebula <cebula-l@xxxxxxxx>

There are so many good websites about Indians out there, and even more
bad ones, that it is tough to know where to begin.  But for any
educator, you might take a look at the National Museum of the American
Indian Guidelines to Erasing Native American Stereotypes (
http://www.nmnh.si.edu/anthro/outreach/sterotyp.html ) which has some
good tips on avoiding both old myths and new ones.  A quirky but
valuable site is BIG BADDIE$ (NatAm Brand) FOR KIDS (
http://www.kstrom.net/isk/books/baddies/badmenu.html ) which points
out what is wrong with some favorite children's books about Indians,
especially Susan Jeffers execrable and dishonest  _Brother Eagle, Sister
Sky_.

Greetings Kathy and all,

I have many Native American Web Sites on my site:
http://www.princetonol.com/groups/iad/lessons/middle/diversit.htm

Once you narrow it down to which cultural groups you
want to study, I can direct you to some specific
sites. I have researched many cultures and do not have
those online - as well as many additional art sites.

You might want to start with the cultural groups from
your area of the country first. While some have
similar customs and beliefs - there area many
distinctly different customs.

Regards,

Judy Decker
