While researching racism against native americans, I came across an on dosomething.org. If you are not already familiar with this website, it is a non-profit organization with the mission of getting young people (ages 13-25) involved in charity and causes to make the world a better place.

This piece addresses prejudice against native americans both in the past, and in the present day. It made me think back to what we learn in history class about the native americans being mistreated and pushed off their land by the European settlers. It upset me to think about how the discrimination of these native people is an unresolved issue dating all the way back to hundreds of years ago. Although this article is informative, I have yet to find an organization supporting an end to native american racism and I intend to do so for one of my later blogposts because after a little research, it is a cause I feel strongly about.
