Native Americans

Youth native americans at the age of 10-24 were thinking and committing suicide because of the lack of money, lack of adequate resources to treat mental health problems, substance abuse and family turmoil, isolation, poverty, etc. All of the stories showed/s readers that native americans were not being treated well, or cared for, and were desperate for help, and were struggling to have a good life.

After a while, there was a big walk that had millions of people involved. The walk was against people who were saying that they were native american, and lying about their race. After the alk, arguments, everyone mad an agreement to stop.

In the 1960s, Native Americans were suffering from lack of money, food, water, health care, etc. Still today, young teens from ages 10-24 are still suffering from depression, illnesses, lack of help, support, loneliness and the feeling of being trapped. Even though most Native Americans are suffering for those reasons, and st
