Bridging the Gap in Teaching Native American History
A University of Texas at Arlington student and faculty member are working to make a Native American studies course available to Texas public school students.
Stephen Silva Brave, a student in the School of Social Work, and Kenneth Roemer, UTA professor emeritus, are part of a group working with Grand Prairie ISD on an American Indian/Native Studies pilot course that could be available as an elective statewide as soon as the 2024-25 school year.
The work behind the course has been featured in The Dallas Morning News and Winds of Change magazine.
