Hi, thank you for linking to my website here (teachik.com). I am interested in promoting working with indigenous topics in high schools. If you are interested in any of the other topics I have on my site, do let me know. Currently I am focusing mainly on Aboriginal Australians and the Sami, but I hope to include other indigenous peoples eventually.
