˜Assiniboine Indian Culture and History

As a complement to our Assiniboine language information, here is our collection of indexed links about the Assiniboine tribe and their society. Please note that Assiniboines and other American Indians are living people with a present and a future as well as a past. Assiniboine history is interesting and important, but the Assiniboine Indians are still here today, too, and we try to feature modern writers as well as traditional folklore, contemporary art as well as museum pieces, and the life and struggles of today as well as the tragedies of yesterday. Please contact us if you have an Assiniboine link to add.
