🔸The discovery of #gold at Sutters Mill in 1848 did more than just spark the largest settler migration in the country’s history.
🔥In both cases, the damage to the lives and cultures of the state’s Indigenous populations was profound.
At the time, there were far more #Indigenous #people than the Spanish or European-descended Americans.
In its effort to provide Native-led historical instruction, the "National Museum of the American Indian" has developed curricula that provides perspective about the people who were there long before anyone else.
