The Coast Salish people are Native Americans whose culture has been at risk of extinction. In the article Indigenous Resistance and Racist Schooling on the Borders of Empires: Coast Salish Cultural Survival, the author Michael Marker explains how the Coast Salish people are forced to conform. The area that they once lived in has been divided by the Canada-US border. The stress that has been put on the Native Americans has caused racism. With the government constantly pushing them around and slowly conforming them, they don't have a chance to voice their opinions or live how the want to really live.
