Native American Narratives
Acculturation is the process through which individuals or groups adopt the cultural traits or social patterns of another group, often occurring when two cultures come into contact. This can involve changes in language, customs, beliefs, and values, and can lead to a blending of cultures or a dominant culture overshadowing a minority one. The concept is particularly relevant in understanding the experiences of Indigenous peoples in the context of forced assimilation policies and practices.
