MN's Minitex News blog recently introduced a new quarterly newsletter: the Indigenous Representations Newsletter.
They write: "Welcome to the first installment of the Indigenous Representations quarterly newsletter. In this newsletter, we will be sharing book and resource recommendations for use in your classroom or library. Indigenous Representations is a statewide project that began in 2016 and aims to connect Minnesota’s youth with positive and appropriate books by and about Indigenous people with a focus on Dakota and Anishinaabe nations. Beyond the resources shared in this newsletter, educators and librarians are encouraged to think critically about Indigenous representation in other resources and continue to seek out materials that truthfully reflect Indigenous cultures."
The newsletter is a collaboration between Fond du Lac Tribal and Community Collecoge, St. Cloud State University, the St Kate's Master of Library and Information program, the University of Minnesota Kerlan Collection, Birchbark Books, MN Department of Education State Library Services and MN Department of Education Office of American Indian Education.
This first newsletter includes book and resource recommendations for use in the classroom or library.
