Christine Shearer Quotes
In 1924, Native Americans Were Granted U.S. Citizenship, And The Federal Government Considered It A National Duty To "civilize" Them,13 Including Alaska Natives. Education Was Seen As An Important Force In This Mission, And Teachers Were Sent To Native Settlements To Encourage Changes In Culture, Religion, And Language. School Was Taught In English, Churches Were Constructed, And Monogamous Marriages And Patriarchal Households Were Encouraged Or Enforced, Breaking Up Communal Households .14 Historically Nomadic Alaska Natives Began Settling Around The Schools And Churches, Often By Order Of The U.S. Government, Which In Turn Provided Small-scale Infrastructure And Health Clinics.15 What Is Now The Village Of Kivalina, For Example, Had Originally Been Used Only As A Hunting Ground During Certain Times Of The Year, But Its Intermittent Inhabitants Were Ordered To Settle Permanently On The Island And Enroll Their Children In School Or Face Imprisonment.
