Audio file Description Here, C. Huffman, Kaw Nation citizen, argues that treaties should be taught in Kansas schools and also addresses the contemporary appropriation of Native images and identities. Transcript “I would think that because these treaties were so important to how the state was made, I would think that they would be required reading for every student in Kansas… But they're not. How it relates to our life? I mean, I wonder. For me, when I see news articles about mascots in high schools and when I see history books that don't include us… When I see things that are named after us but have no connection to us, so appropriation, I know that those treaties were very effective.” Topics Listen to "Kansas without the Kanza" audio clips Tags C.
