Growing a Leader•Each stage does not necessarily correlate with chronological age.
•At any given point in time in our growth, we can bounce forward and backward into stages.
•We need to be patient and aware of ourselves and be aware of the constant duality of growing as a leader.

Historical Trauma and Boarding SchoolsFrom 1870s - 1930s, many Native children were forced into the schools to be “civilized” Indians and eradicate all traces of Native culture.
Punishment was severe for speaking native languages or practicing traditions and customs. They were forced to speak English and practice Christianity.
The Meriam Report, a major investigation into Indian affairs, was published in 1928 and confirmed the complaints Indian families and students had been making for years

Internalized Oppression• Internalizing the beliefs and values of the oppressor, or dominant group, in order to feel a sense of power.
• Self-worth of the individual and/or group has sunk to a level of self-hatred. This self-hatred can be either internalized or externalized.
• When self-hatred is externalized, we encounter a level of violence within the community that is unparalleled in any other group in the country. (Duran and Duran, 29)

Sometimes violence was used as a protective factor • Harsh punishment of kids because they would be lynched if they acted up
• Parents rather be the ones to issue corporal punishment – sign of “love”
• Aligning behaviors and actions with those with the power was for survival
“Behavior was adapted to what was happening at the time, now it’s become maladaptive. Beatings were supposed to save lives. I can’t tell you why you can’t go outside at night, because people wanted to hang you.”
- Sam Simmons

History is Not in the Past “Stop blaming me for what happened in the past.”
“You need to get over it/move on.”
“Well, that’s my opinion so let’s agree to disagree.”
“But America is one big melting pot.”
“But what about black-on-black crime?”
“Why must you always be the victim?”
