the Native Americans, has been a profound beginning of the Pacific Northwest history. In addition, the irreplaceable Chinese immigrants have become another significant part of the history. Fundamentally, these two groups have contributed their lives to developments in the region, and their developments provide benefits to other racial group. Yet, the Natives and the Chinese do not get valuable credits, and they do not have imartial opportunities to express their voices like the white Americans. They
Liberty and Education for All America, the land of opportunity. Many people imagine of making their dreams a reality in the country of the United States, some do succeed but for others it is out of their reach. Many people do not think of the fight for education to be an issue in America, especially since America is called “the best nation on Earth”.

because they both started working at a young age, they were relatable and both were exposed to education and took an interest at an early age in life. Booker T. Washington worked as a slave at an early age. Today kids stay at home until they're eighteen of age and others reside in their parents basement where they engulf themselves in video games and cyber surfing. W.E.B.

the Indian are still being felt today. Many traditional Native American languages have become extinct, and the future tribal leaders are struggling to perform at comparable levels with mainstream American students. The upcoming generation does not know their traditional culture or language. This threatens tribal sovereignty (Mesa, 2015). There are differing opinions regarding the United States’ legal responsibility for Indian education. The Supreme Court has continually held that Indian tribes
African Americans and their history as slaves. Most people don’t think of Native Americans. Most people do not relate Native American issues with modern times.
