The story of Act 31 : how native history came to Wisconsin classrooms / JP Leary.

Leary, J. P., 1972- (author.).

Summary:

"Since its passage in 1989, a state law known as Act 31 requires that all students in Wisconsin learn about the history, culture, and tribal sovereignty of Wisconsin's Indian tribes. The Story of Act 31 examines how this law came to be, tracing its origins from a court decision in 1983 that affirmed Native hunting and fishing treaty rights in Wisconsin to the often-violent public outcry that following the court's decision. Author JP Leary argues that the controversy over treaty rights was a direct product of past policy decisions that effectively denied generations of Wisconsin students the opportunity to learn about tribal history. Act 31 stands as an important example of how American Indians worked through the policy system to pursue positive change"-- Provided by publisher.
