@Elizabe84892655 I found it sad that it said they didn't start to notice though until the 1930's. #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

@arby_40 You forgot and I just never even knew! The more you know I guess. #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

@jhrodarte I agree and honestly did not know they were here until after this lesson. #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

@Aragon10P I have not been there yet, though I have heard a ton about it since moving here. #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

@jhrodarte That is an interesting fact. I did not think of it that way! Good point! #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

@Elizabe84892655 and then Dennis Chavez came along to save the day! lol #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

To be honest, I had heard of the code talkers before on the news but did not know who or what importance they were to our country and history. I almost feel embarrassed to even say that out loud but at least now I know right #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

I found it interesting that the US Military used men from the Choctaw to use their language over the radios to prevent the enemy from understanding the communication going in and out. I never learned that in my high school history class. #nmhist

In the 1950's, scientists proved that reducing livestock did not help prevent the erosion as Collier believed. #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

Collier was not liked by the Navajo due to he tried to control the amount of livestock that they were allowed to have and pushed unwanted policies on them. #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

Jacob Morgan organized the Navajo Progressive League due to his disagreement with Collier head of BIA. #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

John Collier was the head of the Bureau of Indian Affairs during President Roosevelts presidency. #nmhist

Part of Dennis Chavez's Hispanic New Deal focused on education and bringing back artwork like "santero" style. #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

Dennis Chavez was known for created what people called the Hispanic New Deal #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

Senator Dennis Chavez, though he was a Democrat his father was an active Republican. #nmhist

Many migrants during the time of the depression-era traveled through New Mexico in hopes to a new start and better luck in California #nmhist

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

@jhrodarte @TKotlisky That's awesome to hear Jason! We didn't have any of that in California other than Spanish and French was offered in high school for 2 years. All my Spanish teacher liked to talk about was food haha

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

@TKotlisky I agree also, I think that Spanish in high school is not enough. If we can teach babies sign language we can teach them Spanish or another language as well :)

@Elizabe84892655 I thought that section was really neat! I had no idea. It sucks that it was abandoned and didnt last.

[Morgan Campbell @MorganC47231257]

@Elizabe84892655 Ya I thought that was amazing! She was definitely tough!
