A really good website for keeping people sensitive is www.oyate.org. This
site evaluates children's books about Native Americans. I think all
teachers and librarians should be familiar with it.
I would recommend the URL for our local museum. "Explore 7,500 years .. .
of cultural traditions of the Alutiiq people".
