This telling of the American story diminishes the critical role played by Native people and nations in the formation of the principles upon which the United States is built. In truth, American ideals such as union, the...

When European settlers first came to the region more than a century ago, it was likely the language of the Chippewa or Dakotah Indians the immigrants first heard. In order to help preserve the spoken language of the Ojibwe people, the University of Minnesota has just released an online dictionary of the language and culture. The Ojibwe People’s Dictionary allows anyone to hop on the computer and learn more about the history, meaning and sound of any Ojibwe word. Listening to the recorded voice of an Ojibwe elder, two Detroit Lakes teenagers l...
