23 - 5: Home From School: The Children of Carlisle

"Kill the Indian in him, and save the man." This was the guiding principle that removed thousands of Native American children and placed them in Indian boarding schools. Among the many who died at Carlisle Indian Industrial School were three Northern Arapaho boys.
