In this first episode, artist Kellen Trenal outlines the work that will be explored over the next four episodes. This series may help you learn a little bit about the history of the niimíipuu, Nez Perce people. Feel free to skip episodes 2-5 and only listen to the first and last episodes of this series; that can be your CliffsNotes version of everything this series discusses. If you want to listen to it all, it's there for you as well. These episodes do a lot in sharing brutal perspectives on American history. Join Kellen as he works through the research and breaks down the language in these official government documents.
