Native AmericansNative Americans migrated to the Americas
and formed hundreds of tribes.
Each tribe has their own language and traditions.
Native Americans

throughout history.
Their living environments depended on what the
weather was like outside.
2 million Native Americans still live in the
United States today.
Native Americans & Sports

Native Americans often do not like sports because the name of the team or the mascot is racist. For example the name of the team: “Redskins” and “Indians.”
Many sports teams mimick Native American religious rituals.
