Wisconsin student punished over speaking in family's Native American language at school

.
Wisconsin GOP has passed a "collectors' rights" resolution, making it the Lootier State. Collectors and dealers claim that US private citizens is a way to fuller intercultural understanding, so in the light of its great understanding of the needs of US artefact collectors you'd expect Wisconsin to be full of it. Not entirely true. Astoundingly enough, and like something straight out of a pre-1918 school in Partitioned Poland, Miranda Washinawatok, a 12-year old Wisconsin student has reportedly been punished over speaking a few words in her family's Native American language at school. It seems the cultural heritage valued in Wisconsin is an exotic mix of foreign elements in which there may be no place for native ones. Even more disturbing, the teacher who seems to have avoided an outright apology for her actions is from a family with apparent Polish roots (Gurba surname).
