Long before the Pilgrims came ashore in the United States, there were Native Americans who roamed and ruled the lands of the country. Starting Tuesday, residents across the U.S. will celebrate the rich and diverse culture of the 3.2 million Native Americans living in the country while recognizing all of the historical sacrifices they've made in the country during National Native American Heritage Month.
The month-long holiday is a time to pay homage to the many contributions Native American people have provided since settlers first arrived stateside on the Mayflower in 1620 and recognize the many lives and tribes that were tragically lost during U.S. advancement.
