2-3 Days (55 minute classes), 11-12 Grade

Which sites are remembered, how are they remembered, and who has the power to decide? In this multi-day lesson, students will look at historical markers and sacred sites in order to explore concepts of colonialism, displacement, and forced assimilation and their impact on Southern California Native people. Students will examine how sites like Pá’čapa or Mt Rubidoux are remembered and have the opportunity to write/rewrite a historical marker that centers the indigeneity of the Inland Empire and proximal areas.
