Carlisle Indian Industrial School-During a time when the United States government was willing to spend $1 million to eradicate a single Indian tribe out west. Captain Richard Henry Pratt established the Carlisle Indian Industrial School. Pratt’s idea was to “save” native children by turning the “savages” into white men and women. Critique the school’s plan to “Kill the Indian, save the Man” as you explore what it means to be stripped of your cultural heritage through forced assimilation. There will be a guided tour of the new CCHS exhibition: Before and After, and After.
