Montana State University, 2024, pp. 1-45.https://scholarworks.montana.edu/handle/1/18676Each year, millions of people retreat to what are now known as (WANKA) America’s national parks and their units. This escape from the settler-colonial lives of our capitalistic economy and imperialistic mindset is often touted as a much-needed respite for overworked, stressed-out adults and technology-addicted youth- a result of our “more is better” lifestyle and demand for instant gratification. The learning opportunity afforded, although unconventional, provides space with which to bring the voice of Indigenous Peoples to the forefront of the narrative of national parks’ history and the legacy of displacement.en-USCopyright by Amy Jo Dugan-Kimball 2024National ParkseducationNative AmericanIndigenizing the National Parks Service-Unlearning Settler Colonial History on Native Lands
