We celebrate the contributions that American Indian and Alaska Natives have made to the United States. American Indians and Alaska Natives were among the first people to understand that air, water, plants, and animals must be treated with respect to remain available for generations to come. They taught the first European settlers how to survive. Many of the foods we eat and the medicines that we use were introduced by Indians. They helped the Europeans to explore uncharted wilderness.
Many highways follow old Indian trails.
Every American Indian tribe is unique and each has celebrated heroes of its own. American Indian and Alaska Natives have represented this country in every war from the American Revolution to the Persian Gulf.
