The Navajo traded and the Apache raided. Maslow's second level -- security needs -- relates well to those tribes whose culture was in growing corn, squash, and beans. They needed security and safety from the tribes like the Apache that raided Indian camps for food. They didn't need everything on Maslow's list (health insurance, steady employment) of course, but they did need "shelter from the environment" and their environment included marauding tribes like the Apache (Pritzker, pp. 4-5).
The Southwestern tribes' cultural ritual of trading wives, dancers, a shaman or a ritualist (one who channels the power of the dead) was an early Native American example of Maslow's "social needs" concept. Love, belonging, affection, friendships, and romantic attachments are among the social needs Maslow talked about and psychologically the Southwestern tribes had their own psychological approaches to meeting those needs.
Meanwhile Brendan January's book Native American Art & Culture portrays the young Native American as having to go through "an important ritual" in order to become an adult. The adolescent learned how to survive alone in the hills by watching his father and...
"For Koreans, there exists a strong belief in filial duty - treating parents with respect and obeying them, caring for them when they are old, giving them a proper burial, and even worshipping them with ceremonies after death.

Professional Communication: Cultural Sensitivity Among Native Americans In nursing school, we are normally taught that we should respect the dignity and rights of all clients.

Literature classes focus mainly on the works of dead white guys, and science talks about the accomplishments of dead white guys.
