Did you know November was officially declared “National American Indian Heritage Month," now more commonly known as Native American Heritage Month, in 1990?
There is so much to learn and understand about Native American Heritage Month, and the Red Bank Public Library aims to provide a platform for our Native community members to share their culture, art, traditions, and ways of life.
Let’s Talk about Race hosts Land & Legacy
In honor of Native American Heritage Month, Let’s Talk About Race is proud to present Land & Legacy.
