  • Summary

  • Kansas is home to Haskell Indian Nations University, today the premier institution of higher education for Native Americans in the United States. However, Haskell has a long and complicated history, including experiencing two deadly outbreaks of the 1918 influenza pandemic (as told in Episode 3). In this mini-episode, we talk with Prof. Eric Anderson, chair of the Indigenous and American Indian Studies Department at Haskell Indian Nations University and an expert on the history of the institution. how did a boarding school that for many decades promoted assimilation into Euro-American culture, forcibly stripping students of their indigenous cultures, eventually become a university that celebrates and promotes Indigenous sovereignty and Native American culture in all its diversity?
