Coast Salish cultural survival

Indigenous resistance and racist schooling on the borders of

empires: Coast Salish cultural survival

This article discuses the struggle that indigenous peoples of the Canada-USA border are facing in regards to schooling. Regional schools in the US along the border are known for “removing Indigenous peoples from the land they were from and eradicating the memory of languages and place-based epistemologies containing the Indigenous meanings of time and reality.” These people were only allowed to attend the regional schools that would strip them of their identity. Makere Stewart-Harawira says that “education was the primary tool for the submerging of Indigenous peoples’ highly developed ‘inner’ ways of knowing under a layer of colonising ideologies.” This means that in order for indigenous people to continue to live on the “US” soil that they had to attend thee schools.

The area I chose was Toms River. Several animals that are indigenous to the area are the ghost crab, great blue heron, garter snake, great egert, box turtle and many more. Some of the plants include white baneberry, red maple, northern maidenhair, and sugar maple.

Synthesis of HW Oct. 1st

This article discusses a process in which"manufacturing industries are legally disposing of hazardous wastes by turning them into fertilizer to spread around farms. In a small town in Washington a local farmer had noticed that his animals and crops were slowly dieing. With help from the mayor of his town he did research and eventually found that a local steel mill company is storing its hazardous waste in silos under a federal permit. The silos are located at a company called Bay Zinc. Dick Camp, the President of Bay Zinc says  "when it comes out of the silo, it's no longer regulated. The exact same material. Don't ask me why. That's the wisdom of the EPA."
