Lesson 2 - Generalization and Rationale

Generalization

People in a community contribute to change. Aboriginal People adapted to changes in society and worked to evolve and empower their communities.

Rationale

There are many successful and influential Aboriginal People who are empowering role models for Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal youth. These individuals demonstrate that many of the stereotypes generated and perpetuated by the media and government are false and misleading. Students have the opportunity to explore a variety of Aboriginal role models and heroes, and to discover how many Aboriginal leaders struggled to provide for their communities in the face of significant cultural and social change.
