Native American Heritage Month — marked each month in November — recognizes the contributions the first Americans made to the establishment and growth of the United States. In 1990, President George H. W. Bush approved a resolution designating November as “National American Indian Heritage Month.”

Fresno State has several events taking place in November, honoring the Native American members of the campus community:

Month of November: The Fresno State Library will host physical and digital displays highlighting the efforts of indigenous communities and scholars working to restore and revive native languages. The displays, located in the Diversity Lounge on the second floor north, will include interactive activities.

Nov. 9: Movie Night — American Indian in Media, the Cross Cultural and Gender Center’s American Indian Programs and Services will host an interactive night for attendees to learn about American Indian culture, traditions and peoples through popular media from 6 to 8:30 p.m. at Library Room 2206, screening the movie “Prey” (2022) with a discussion afterward. All are welcome. Contact: Kathy Moua at ccgcamindian@mail.fresnostate.edu.
