Excerpt from Indians at Work, Vol. 9: A News Sheet for Indians and the Indian Service, March 1942Government authority intensify, or does it substitute for, family or community or tribal responsibility and initiative? Is the young Indian building the two worlds white and Indian into a harmonious personality, or is he becoming a Split soul? How can the school be so adjusted that the now of language will not be interrupted? How, otherwise stated, can English and Papago facilitate one another instead of con fusing and obstructing one another? Can the school truly and genuinely build its curriculum out of the practical needs and perplexities of the community out of the subjects of bolsa farming, range practice, animal husbandry, buying, marketing, and, in general, practical management? The Papago child in his own home is given moral and intellectual responsibility, just as though he were an adult. He participates in making the family decisions and programs. Could it be arranged that he participate in that same way in the constructing of school program, curricula, discipline and oh jectives? These are examples of questions which were not brought forward by my self or our white workers but rather by the tribal leaders.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
