About this listen

In this episode, Dr. John Gram mentions the following books:

-Education for Extinction: American Indians and the Boarding School Experience, by David Wallace Adams

-Boarding School Seasons: American Indian Families, 1900-1940, by Brenda J. Child

-They Called It Prairie Light: The Story of Chilocco Indian School, by K. Tsianina Lomawaima

 

And you can find Dr. John Gram's very useful history website here.

As always, the wonderful music is the song 'Ezekial,' and it comes to us courtesy of Christine Hand. Check it out.
