Biden creates a new national monument marking the legacy of Indian boarding schools

President Biden with Gila River Indian Community Gov. Stephen Roe Lewis on Oct. 25, 2024, when Biden formally apologized for the Indian boarding schools system.

The new monument will be in Carlisle, Pa., on what was the campus of a school where about 7,800 children from more than 140 tribes were sent for assimilation between 1879 to 1918.
