Take a Journey with Lennox and Discover the Truth about Colonialism and Native Americans
Lennox, a curious young student, embarked on an educational adventure when his history teacher introduced the topic of colonialism and Native Americans in class. Little did he know that this journey would completely reshape his understanding of history, culture, and the impacts of colonization on indigenous communities.
As Lennox delved deeper into the subject, his teacher assigned a research project that required visiting the local library and interviewing Native American elders who generously shared their stories and wisdom. He soon discovered that history textbooks only provided a limited perspective, often glorifying European settlers and minimizing the harsh realities faced by Native Americans.
Lennox's first realization came when he learned about the vast civilizations that existed on the American continent long before European arrival, such as the Aztecs, Mayans, and Incas. These sophisticated cultures possessed advanced agricultural systems, architecture, and intricate societal structures.

Exploring further, Lennox uncovered the devastating consequences of colonialism. He learned about the forced displacement of Native Americans from their ancestral lands, the destruction of their cultures and languages, and the numerous treaties broken by European colonizers. Lennox was shocked to discover how the pursuit of land, wealth, and power led to the marginalization and oppression of indigenous tribes.
Lennox's journey also took him to the American West, where he learned about the struggles faced by Native American tribes during the expansion of the United States. He discovered the tragedy of the Trail of Tears, in which thousands of Cherokee people were forcibly relocated from their homelands to unfamiliar territory, resulting in immense suffering and loss of life.
As Lennox continued studying, he discovered the rich heritage and resilience of Native American communities. He became fascinated by their spiritual beliefs, deep connection to nature, and the significance of oral storytelling in preserving their history. Lennox learned that even in the face of adversity, indigenous cultures have persevered, contributing immensely to art, music, and the overall cultural fabric of America.
Lennox was determined to share this newfound knowledge with his classmates and community. He organized a school assembly and invited Native American elders to speak about their experiences and traditions. The event served as an eye-opening experience for his peers, fostering empathy and understanding towards the struggles faced by Native Americans throughout history and today.
Lennox's journey didn't end there. Inspired by his exploration of Native American history, he decided to take action. He joined local advocacy groups that fight for the rights and recognition of indigenous communities, attended cultural events, and continued educating others on the importance of respecting and preserving indigenous cultures.
Lennox's story is a testament to the transformative power of education and the value of understanding history from multiple perspectives. It serves as a reminder that the stories we encounter in textbooks may not always portray the whole truth, and that seeking knowledge beyond what is presented is crucial in forming a comprehensive understanding of our world.
The Importance of Teaching Native American History
Lennox's journey highlights the necessity of teaching Native American history in schools. By accurately educating students about the injustices faced by indigenous communities and the contributions they have made, we can create a more inclusive and equitable society.
Native American history is an integral part of American history, and it is imperative to recognize the impact of colonization on the indigenous peoples of the land. By teaching this history, we can foster empathy, challenge stereotypes, and promote cultural respect and understanding.

NOTE: This is the "bigger kids version" of Lennox Learns about Indigenous Peoples. This version includes more historical depth, and is intended for a slightly older audience (ages 9+).
This picture book depicts the history of Indigenous Peoples in the United States as it relates to the European invasions. This is a tough lesson, but this is our countryโs history that is too often left out in the classroom. The suffering of Native Americans caused by colonialism and US expansionism is the โother side of history.โ Even though this is a heavy topic for children, itโs important for them to get both sides from an early age. This book isnโt only history though. This is also about Indigenous people today. Popular culture still promotes the narrative that they are no longer. This is about survivors too, and to show that they are still very much here.
