Indigenous Resistance

This article studies the issues of the Coast Salish people as they struggle to keep there culture alive in the home of British Columbia. They are being faced with problems concerning the goal of the government and school systems so assimilate them into the American culture. The government is using the school system as a way to force them into American ways and they are fighting hard to resist. The Coast Salish people are very fond of their traditions and culture and do not want to be assimilated into the school system by the American or Canadian government. The Salish people won't give up in the fight to save their culture and traditions! I don't think any one would want to compromise their culture to obey the government.
