Since 1990 when the first Native American Heritage Month was proclaimed, November has been a month to reflect on our nation’s history, commemorate the contributions of Tribes, and celebrate the unique and widely diverse cultures of America’s First Peoples. Did You know? California is home to about 110 federally recognized tribes and an additional 81 that seek recognition in the Golden State. A short overview history of these groups can be found on the California Native American Heritage Commission website (https://lnkd.in/g2_wMd-z) Our efforts at Æ honor the history, culture, and legacy of Tribal nations and Indigenous communities across California - and throughout the United States.

November holds a special significance in the #USA as a month dedicated not only to expressing gratitude, but also to honoring and celebrating Native American Heritage. Designated as #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth, this period serves as an opportunity to delve into the rich history, diverse cultures, and enduring contributions of #NativeAmerican peoples. In the spirit of recognizing and commemorating Native American Heritage Month, we want to shine a spotlight on Brian McKenna's impactful show, Chiefs. Chiefs is a six-part series from Multicom Entertainment Group, Inc. that intricately explores the lives of the great leaders, #warriors, and diplomats of the #FirstNations, whose stories form a central drama of the North American continent. Combining #documentary elements with dramatic reenactments, the #series vividly brings to life the power, spirit, and mystery of the First Nations while also seeking to separate myth from reality. You can learn more about it below or watch it now at TheArchive.tv here: https://lnkd.in/gq7xizgN As Americans gather around the #Thanksgiving table, it's crucial to recognize that for many Native Americans, Thanksgiving is a day of sorrow and activism. The #holiday, commemorating the arrival of settlers in North America and the subsequent centuries of #oppression and #genocide, prompts reflection on a more nuanced history. The myth of #Thanksgiving implies a harmonious gathering between #Native people and pilgrims to celebrate the #Plymouth colony's survival. However, the reality of the "First Thanksgiving" in 1621 is more complex. Native people were not initially invited, and Wampanoag soldiers independently arrived after hearing celebratory gunshots and screams from #pilgrim settlements. #americanindian #thearchive #multicom #streaming #entertainment #november
