How did Indian boarding schools affect the identities of native Americans?
The Native American children's boarding school experience was enough to scar an entire cultural generation. There was the emotional abuse and physical and sexual abuse. Native Americans were considered savage uncivilized vermin. The children were not allowed to speak their own languages. Their hair,that was culturally significant, was chopped off to ear length for the girls and shaved for the boys. They were stripped of anything that was even remotely tied to their families and their upbringing. They were taught that the culture that spawned them was stupid, meaningless, idiotic and trivial. The boarding school experience was an attempt at genocide that very nearly succeeded.
