Nanticoke School Children

A group portrait of about a dozen Indigenous schoolchildren at the Nanticoke Indian School. They are standing in front of two small trees. The picture was taken in Sussex County, Delaware. Like African American children, Native American children often attended segregated schools, which tried to force them to adopt Euro-American values and lifestyles.
