November is Native American Heritage Month.  We recognize and honor indigenous cultures and worldviews that focus on living in harmony with nature as a part of a shared ecosystem. In this post, we bring you a watercolor painting entitled "Butterfly Dance" by Fred Kabotie (c. 1900–1986) who was a celebrated Hopi painter, silversmith, illustrator, potter, author, curator and educator.

The Hopi Butterfly Dance takes place in late summer to early fall in northern Arizona’s Hopi villages. It is a two-day ceremony for the harvest, calling for rain, good health, and long life for all living things. The dance is performed by young and unmarried girls, a ritual to learn what it means to be a young Hopi woman and her purpose within Hopi culture. On the day of the ceremony, the dancer wears a kopatsoki (headdress) and ceremonial clothing with her feet painted yellow, symbolizing the eagle’s yellow feet, so that she can dance lightly throughout the day. (You can learn more about Butterfly Dance in the essay written by Gloria Lomahaftewa on the National Museum of the American Indian’s website.)

In honor of Native American Heritage Month, here is DeGrazia’s "Waiting for the Pow Wow” from his Navajo Collection painted in 1962. DeGrazia's early childhood experiences in Morenci, an ethnically diverse community, evolved into a lifelong appreciation of native cultures in the Sonoran Desert and a passion to create art depicting their lives and lore.

Since its inception during the Civil War, 25 Medals of Honor have been awarded to U.S. Army soldiers of Native American descent. The first soldier of Sioux Nation heritage to receive America’s highest military honor was Master Sergeant Woodrow W. Keeble, a combat veteran of World War Two and the Korean War who earned the Medal of Honor for actions on 20 October 1951. During WWII, Keeble was attached to the 164th Infantry Regiment when it became the first Army unit sent to reinforce the Marine Corps’ defense of Henderson Field on Guadalcanal, earning repute for his skill with a Browning Automatic Rifle. Keeble fought his way through the Pacific Theater’s island-hopping campaign along with the rest of the 164th and was discharged in 1946. Keeble’s retirement was short-lived however – in 1951, Keeble rejoined the fight as part of the 19th Infantry Regiment, 24th Infantry Division in Korea. As a platoon leader during Operation Nomad-Polar, the final major U.N. offensive of the war, Keeble distinguished himself during an assault against Chinese positions on Hill 765. As his platoon’s advance ground to a halt under withering fire on the steep hillside terrain, Keeble drove forward in a harrowing one-man attack. Although he was being showered with grenades and machine gun fire Keeble pressed forward, destroying three enemy machine gun nests and flooding enemy trenches with automatic fire. Buoyed by their sergeant’s valor, the men of Keeble’s platoon rallied to his aid, securing the hilltop and completing their mission. Keeble was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross in 1952, upgraded to the Medal of Honor in 2008. He also earned two Silver Stars, two Bronze Stars, and four Purple Hearts across his Army career. #Armyhistory #USArmy #TRADOC #MilitaryHistory #WWII #KoreanWar #MOH #WorldWarTwo #WW2 #WW2History #Sioux #MedalOfHonor Posted @withrepost • @armyhistory #nativeamericanheritagemonth (at Spring Hill, Tennessee) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClL9DivuaZN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

🐓BOOK REVIEW : Together we drum, our hearts beat as one - Willie Poll - Chief Lady Bird (Arsenal Pulp Press)

A young and determined Anishnaabe girl in search of adventure goes on a transformative journey into a forest on her traditional territory. As she faces dangers and is challenged by a monster named Hate, she receives strength from the matriarchs and her ancestors. Together they beat their drums in song and support, driving out doubt and fear.

Chief Lady Bird’s illustrations are very colorful and beautiful . Each detail was delicately created, offering hundreds of things to discover. Willie Poll ‘s words are poetic and mesmerizing. It is a powerful book about Indigenous resistance and ancestral connection. Family and ancestors are at the heart of the young heroine’s quest, as they give her courage and confidence to continue on her chosen path.

I've been so excited for this book, and now it's here, just in time for Thanksgiving! At last, a story of Thanksgiving written by a member of the Wampanoag people, telling real history in a way that is accessible to little ones. This book tells the often-fictionalized tale from a Native perspective, creating the character of Weeâchumun (corn) to tell the story, along with Nokomis (grandmother), who unfolds the events to her grandchildren. It shows the generosity and caring of the Wampanoag people, and the mixed feelings of welcoming and wariness they felt for the people who needed help, but did not listen to the land. It tells the accurate account of the "first Thanksgiving," where settlers prepared a feast and fired muskets into the air, which alerted the Wampanoag (they didn't invite them to the feast). It notes how for settlers, the day is called Thanksgiving, but for many native people, it is a day of mourning. Yet this book is not somber, but thoughtful, a prelude to learning more (the back matter is particularly helpful). I strongly recommend this to all teachers, parents, and anyone wanting to show kids a "true" Thanksgiving story. #socialstudies #keepunumuk #thanksgiving #kindergarten #wampanoag #firstnationspeople #firstpeople #nativeamericans #americanindian #thanksgiving2022 #americanindianheritagemonth #nativeamerican #nativeamericanheritagemonth #teachinghardhistory #teacherlibrarian #teachthetruth #teachtruth #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #librariansfollowlibrarians #librariansofinstagram #schoollibrarian #librarian #historyforkids #history #childrensbooks #ownvoices https://www.instagram.com/p/CkrjQryMd-q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
