The new law was announced on California Native American Day.
California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a law on Friday requiring schools in the state to teach about the historic mistreatment of Native Americans.The new bill ensures public K-12 schools teaching about Spanish colonization and the California gold rush will include instruction on the mistreatment and perspectives of Indigenous peoples during those periods.
Indigenous people are one of several marginalized groups whose lived experiences, including the atrocities they faced, have been glossed over in American history books.Johnny Hernandez Jr., vice chairman of the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians in Southern California, spoke to the Associated Press about his firsthand experience hearing two different histories of Indigenous peoples in California: one from his elders, based on their life experience and one from his teachers.
