November is National American Indian & Alaskan Native Month

President Trump issued a proclamation on October 31, declaring November to be National American Indian and Alaska Native Month.

"American Indians and Alaska Natives are inextricably linked with the history of the United States," states the proclamation. "Beginning with the Pilgrims' arrival at Plymouth Colony and continuing until the present day, Native American's contributions are woven deeply into our Nation's rich tapestry. During National Native American Heritage Month, we honor and celebrate the first Americans and recognize their contributions and sacrifices."
