Indigenous Peoples' Heritage Month: Home

Home

Indigenous Peoples' Heritage Month is celebrated in November. In the United States, it is also known as National Native American Heritage Month or American Indian and Alaska Native Heritage Month. The McGraw-Page Library joins the Inclusive Engagement Team in the Student Engagement Center in using the term “indigenous peoples” in recognition of the shared identity amongst individuals who lived together in a community before countries, states or regions were officially classified and named.
