This webinar focused on three vastly divergent federal Indian policies and their positive and negative impacts on Native nations historically and today. Dr. Kevin Gover (Pawnee), the Under Secretary for Museums and Culture at the Smithsonian, provided an overview of the Reorganization, Termination, and Self-Determination Eras. Dr. Gover brought attention to the fact that throughout every policy era, tribal leaders have continued to display persistence and resilience in their efforts to affirm their rights as nations to govern themselves. Museum staff then highlighted how educators can use NK360° resources to shed light on and make relevant for students different aspects of U.S. federal Indian policy.
