California Indian History Before and After the Gold Rush

July 23rd-24th, Virtual

The California gold rush is one of the most iconic stories in American history. While the gold rush is taught in almost every U.S. history class in the United States, what is often left out is the Native American experience before, during, and after this brief but pivotal time period. Take a deep dive with Dr. Khal Schneider (Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria) into the complex history behind the California gold rush and its impact on the Native peoples of California. Recommended for teachers of grades 4–12.
