They Called It Prairie Light: The Story of Chilocco Indian SchoolEstablished in 1884 and operative for nearly a century, the Chilocco Indian School in Oklahoma was one of a series of off reservation boarding schools intended to assimilate American Indian children into mainstream American life.

Established in 1884 and operative for nearly a century, the Chilocco Indian School in Oklahoma was one of a series of off-reservation boarding schools intended to assimilate American Indian children into mainstream American life. Critics have characterized the schools as destroyers of Indian communities and cultures, but the reality that K. Tsianina Lomawaima discloses was much more complex.

Lomawaima allows the Chilocco students to speak for themselves. In recollections juxtaposed against the official records of racist ideology and repressive practice, students from the 1920s and 1930s recall their loneliness and demoralization but also remember with pride the love and mutual support binding them together--the forging of new pan-Indian identities and reinforcement of old tribal ones.

A Skin Saver
I've been using the Centella toner for a week now, and it's quickly become a staple in my skincare routine. Infused with Centella Asiatica extract, this toner is perfect for calming irritated or sensitive skin. The texture is light and watery absorbs quickly without any sticky residue making it ideal for layering or using as a refreshing mist throughout the day. It is very soothing reduces redness and inflammation, especially after exfoliating or sun exposure. It is very hydrating and gives a subtle moisture boost without clogging pores. It has no alcohol or fragrance, so it's great for sensitive or acne-prone skin. I use it after cleansing and before serum, and I’ve noticed my skin feels more balanced and less prone to breakouts or irritation. It pairs well with other products and hasn’t caused any pilling or sensitivity. If your skin leans sensitive, inflamed, or needs a calming reset, this Centella toner is worth trying. Affordable, gentle, and effective. I definitely recommend this product
