Indigenous Peoples' Day is celebrated in October and it’s a holiday in the United States that celebrates and honors Native American peoples and commemorates their histories and cultures. We continue this month-long series by exploring more about indigenous peoples' history with boarding schools, the rates of sexual assault, the 2003 commission on Civil Rights, and the current disparities that indigenous people face currently.
