The Native American Today __

Today the government provides more help to tribes especially with education and healthcare. However, that isn't enough; because they were so brutally treated in the past. Many tribes realize that they need to find their own way to earn money and help people. Some reservations run casinos or depend on the arts and craft. Others tribes have natural resources they can trade and have built industry that provides job.  Nevertheless;  it’s far from perfect, but there are some very successful tribes that have adapted to the “new" lifestyle and have become self-sufficient. It is impossible to repair all the wrong done to the first Americans; however it is important to recognize their issues and help to preserve their rich culture and heritage.
