Abstract

ABSTRACT Native American youth face a number of challenges that affect their academic success and wellbeing. In schools, Native American youth are presented with textbooks that include stereotyped and distorted information about their peoples’ history. However, there is a gap in the literature showing whether these textbooks contain microaggressive statements. The current study is a qualitative inquiry into five Montana history that explores the following questions: The first, are there microaggressions in history textbooks used across Montana, and the second – if there are microaggressions, what are those themes? Results of this study indicate that these books included 96 microinvalidations, 54 microinsults, and 11 microassaults. The themes of these microaggressive statements expanded beyond Sanchez’s (2007) original themes. In turn, this study discusses the results from a perspective of White privilege, and how educational consultants can help combat this prejudice engrained in curriculum.

培养视角：对学校历史教科书中针对美洲原住民的微侵犯行为的定性调查

摘要美国原住民青年面临着许多挑战，这些挑战影响着他们的学业成功和幸福感。在学校里，向美国原住民青年提供的教科书中包含了关于其民族历史的陈旧和扭曲的信息。然而，在显示这些教科书是否包含微攻击性陈述的文献中存在空白。目前的研究是对蒙大拿州五部历史的定性调查，探讨了以下问题：第一，蒙大拿州各地使用的历史教科书中是否存在微侵犯，第二，如果存在微侵犯行为，这些主题是什么？本研究的结果表明，这些书包括96个微观验证、54个微观结果和11个微观分析。这些微攻击性陈述的主题超出了桑切斯（2007）的原始主题。反过来，这项研究从白人特权的角度讨论了结果，以及教育顾问如何帮助消除课程中根深蒂固的偏见。

Consultation is broadly defined as a process that facilitates problem solving for individuals, groups, and organizations. JEPC publishes articles and special thematic issues that describe formal research, evaluate practice, examine the program implementation process, review relevant literature, investigate systems change, discuss salient issues, and carefully document the translation of theory into practice.
