WEEMEYAKWE: WHERE WE COME FROM

From “The Ohio Country” Webpage:

“This 12–episode series provides a perspective on the history of the region we now call Ohio that very few of us learned in school. It puts the experiences of Miami, Shawnee, Wyandotte, and other American Indian People at the center of a refreshed version of the state’s complicated past and undecided future.”

This in-depth podcast from WYSO Public Radio is the result of more than a year of reporting, made possible with support from Ohio Humanities (ohiohumanities.org).

Hosts: Neenah Ellis, Chris Welter

Frind “The Ohio Country” anywhere you can listen to podcasts, or listen online here.
