| Abstract | The purposes of this paper are to identify the problems Washington State Indians face and to provide considerations that might assist in promoting the welfare and well-being of American Indians. It is stated that the major barrier to the Indian's success in American society is the attitude of the Anglo towards the Indian. Thus, the programs and legislative proposals designed for the Indian are usually irrelevant to reservation life. Supported by statistics, this condition is apparent in health, education, economic development, and unemployment. Education is the prime concern in achieving a new Indian life style. Obstacles to adequate education are found in the home, the environment, and the educational process. Specific obstacles in the home include inadequate study facilities, an oppressive social environment caused by crowded living conditions, inadequate income for clothing and recreation, and minimal educational heritage. The report concluded that non-Indians must be more responsive to a heterogeneous population and recognize the right of the Indian to decide his own future. (HBC) |
