Ohio’s American Indian culture is ancient and rich, but disconnected from the present. We look at efforts to revive the connection here and in Oklahoma. Plus, how the work of a professor to revive the language of the Miami "Myaamia" Nation of Oklahoma has led to a MacArthur “genius grant” fellowship.
Guests:
- Daryl Baldwin, Director, the Myaamia Center at Miami University of Ohio
- Kerry Holton, President, the Delaware Nation
- Marti Chaatsmith, Assoc. Director, Newark Earthwork Center
Event:
Join Ohio History Connection and celebrate American Indian Week September 25–October 1. American Indian Week is a state-designated week honoring the influence of American Indians on Ohio culture.
