On October 20, 2022, I re-recorded this episode, which was first published on January 3, 2021, with a few small tweaks and interjections. This is that version.
This is the first substantive episode of The History of the Americans Podcast. For an introduction to this podcast series, please check out “Introductions and such,” which includes a short introductory podcast.
This episode is a high-level look at how the European and European-American view of the indigenous peoples of North America has changed over the last five hundred years, and why it has changed.

Breezed through the intro.
Episode 1 was rather early in the am, so I may need a do-over. Regardless, any topic pertaining to the Algonquin has my interest.
I look forward to Episode 2 and providing some meaningful feedback.
Good to be in the community and if you morph into Orson Wells-you will have my attention forever.
