| Summary: | In this story from the Tales from American HerStory series, Wenonah is desperate to preserve her identity as an Ojibwe girl from the Lac Du Flambeau tribe in northern Wisconsin as she faces forced assimilation. The early 1900's continued to mark a dark time in our U.S. history, as Indigenous children were stripped of their native heritage and culture and sent to boarding schools, where the government tried to eradicate everything about their lives as Native Americans. Wenonah and her grandfather will discover ways that they can remember their Ojibwe heritage even though the world is changing for them all. |
