The idea for National American Indian Heritage Month stems from the campaign of a member of the Seneca tribe to recognize a “First Americans” day. In 1915, the state of Kansas recognized “American Indian Day.” Slowly but surely, more states caught on, and in 1990 the event was formally adopted by the federal government as “National American Indian Heritage Month.”
During the month of November, we celebrate the rich cultural diversity of American Indians. During this month we learn about the traditions, arts, and history of different tribes. You may have heard about American Indian groups such as the Cherokee, Navajo, Sioux and Iroquois, but there are many, many, more! For example, many American Indian tribes believe that the world was started on the back of a turtle. Many more stories and traditions also revolve around animals found in North America.
