18. Carlisle Indian School Notes

19. Overarching Question: What happens when one group of people tries to control the actions and being of another group?

20. The Carlisle Indian School Carlisle Indian School: • Founded in 1879 by Lt. Richard • Henry Pratt. • The first off-reservation boarding school. • It was one of the main 19th century efforts by the US government to assimilate Native American children from 140 tribes in the area to the majority culture.

21. The Carlisle Indian School In the late 18th century: • With increasing European immigration, settlers found it necessary to assimilate Native Americans into the culture. • George Washington and Henry Knox supported educating native children, in efforts to "civilize Native Americans into the European- American society. • Many saw Native Americans as equals but felt that their society was inferior.

22. Lieutenant Richard Henry Pratt Pratt served during the Civil War • Responsibility was to command Native Americans who were enlisted to fight. During this time, Lt. Pratt made an effort to: • Better conditions for the Native Americans • Culturally assimilate them into European culture • Educate them

23. Why? Pratt convinced the tribal leaders that the reason they were able to take Indian land was because they were uneducated. Many of the first students were sent voluntarily. Students were taught: Math English Art Music And eventually, they were taught about their own cultures

24. Not everything was all Gravy… Soon, death tolls began to rise in the school. Students were: Getting sick (tuberculosis) Trying to escape Beaten for- Mourning, Speaking their native languages or Violating the harsh, military rules.

25. “The boys and girls at Carlisle Indian School were trained to … serve as domestics and farm hands and to leave off all ideas or beliefs that came to them from their Native communities, including and particularly, their belief that they were entitled to land, life, liberty, and dignity.... separated from all that is familiar; stripped, shorn, robbed of their very self; and ultimately renamed.” -Ann Rinaldi, Historical fiction author on her research of the Carlisle Indian School.

26. The Carlisle Closes. 1904: Carlisle was forced to step down He and government officials came to conflict about Pratt’s outspoken need to assimilate Native Americans By the time the school had closed, 12,000 students had passed through the doors of the Carlisle Indian School. Very few graduated from the full program and more than double had attempted to run away.

27. Please pass your Carlisle Indian School Notes to the End of your table.
