When the history of America comes to mind, most people expect stories about the fight for independence, liberation, World War two, the American Revolution, and so many other historical events. But that’s not all. America today is the most powerful country on the planet, no doubt about that, but it has a lot of sad histories. One such history is the Sand Creek massacre of eighteen sixty-four, where American Natives were ordered to be killed and slaughtered by American soldiers.

Native Journals offers an insightful exploration into the lives, cultures, and resilience of indigenous peoples across the Americas, from the Cherokee to the Inuits. We examine the impacts of colonization and celebrate the rich heritage of Native American communities. Join us in honoring these vibrant traditions and stories.
