Ohlone

exams and helped each other a lot of times. There were few of them not able to perform better but disciplined, good at heart and ready to help all the time. Everyone isn’t the same and had to adjust according to the circumstances we were put into. Ohlone college does not fall under the category described by Rose. The school provides great education along with the facilities. My friends are older and have already transferred to universities so I am always involved in my…

inheritance. This is my advice to you; do not help us; help your blood. If we all help our own Nation, wounds will heal sooner. We are creating healing for the people that are here. Not just the Ohlone Nation, but all people that exist on this land”. These are the words that Corrina Gould, a Chochenyo and Karkin Ohlone woman, born and raised in Oakland, CA –better say the ancient village of Huichin-, during the Indigenous Knowledge Gathering on May 2015, at CIIS-California Institute for Integral…

Deborah A. Miranda, a member of the Ohlone Costanoan Esselen tribe, in writing this tribal memoir, attempts to reveal the “truth” that has been hidden from American history books. History books that forget the first peoples who had been living on the soil we know today as the United States of America, cheating American Indians of having their history known to the world; a cruel twist of fate that Miranda will not accept, titling her memoir Bad Indians. Miranda constructs meaning in her writing…

There were enormous differences in many of the factors that affected the non-traditional students that included age, gender, children, and the other questions that were asked on our survey. This means that my predictions were correct, but it only applies to the non-traditional students. So my mistake based off of this study, is that I did not collect enough personal information or organize the students into groups. If I had done that, then maybe my predictions would have matched the results. I…

teacher saw that I enjoyed playing soccer she told my mom about a program where four year olds got together and played on saturday mornings. In the spring of 2008, my mom signed me up for the the four year olds’ Albany Berkeley Soccer Club program at Ohlone Park that my preschool teacher told me about. A bunch of four year olds would gather, running in all different directions. We would start by doing drills run by college student coaches before we split up into groups to play a game while…

When most people hear "Alcatraz" they think "prison," and that is certainly some of the most interesting stuff of the legend. Make no mistake, just walking around in this imposing, if decrepit building will give you the creeps--even knowing how long it's been empty of bad guys. But there is still much more history among the shambling ruins on the island off San Francisco's Pier 41. Pier 41 is adjacent to the chaos of Fisherman's Wharf and the constant foot traffic that San Francisco is famous…

One of the most infamous prisons in history strategically sits in the San Francisco Bay about 1.25 miles offshore from the city. Alcatraz was home to many notorious convicts and now not just San Francisco’s most popular tourist attraction but the most popular in the country. Before “The Rock” was a prison, it has a very eventful past that makes it such an interesting and appealing island. It was avoided and utilized by the Native Americans, and was the most prominent fortress on the west coast…
