  3. WHY DID THE ANISHINABE OR SAULTEIR OR OJIBWE OR CHIPPEWA SETTLE IN NORTHERN WISCONSIN? • According to oral traditions, the Ojibwe first lived on the Atlantic coast of North America. About 500 years ago, the ancestors of the Mille Lacs Band began migrating west.

  4. A New Home • The Ojibwe's self-sufficient way of life was affected by contact with other people. The Ojibwe moved west to escape the Iroquois Wars, avoid contact with newcomers and their mysterious and deadly diseases.

  9. Proud To Be An American • In the the late 1890’s the United States government determined that Indian children should attend Indian boarding schools. • The purpose of these schools was to make the Indian into an American and lose their allegiance to their tribe or reservation.

  10. Capt. R. H. Pratt Founder of Carlisle Indian School • “We can end their existence among us as such separate people by a broad and generous system of English education and training, which will reach all the 50,000 children and in a few years remove all our trouble from them as a separate people and as separate tribes among us, and instead of feeding, clothing and caring for them from year to year, put them in condition to feed clothe and care for themselves.ﾊ Our experiences in many individual cases in the last few years make it evident that not only may we fit him to go and come and abide in the land where ever he may choose, and so lose his identity”

  11. Lac du Flambeau Boarding School • Started in 1900. • Children were taken from parents and enrolled and lived at the school during the year. • Patterned after military schools. • Studied reading, writing, farming carpentry, cooking sewing. • Required to attend a protestant or Catholic service once a week. • Received better food, clothing and shelter. • Forbidden to speak native tongue, wear Indian clothing, or have long traditional hair.
