The Ohio Country
This 12-episode series provides a perspective on the history of the region we now call Ohio that very few of us learned in school. It puts the experiences of Miami, Shawnee, Wyandotte, and other American Indian people at the center of a refreshed version of the state’s complicated past and undecided future.This in-depth podcast from WYSO Public Radio is the result of more than a year of reporting, made possible with support from Ohio Humanities.
Well-researched and in-depth reporting

Very well-researched and in-depth reporting. It shows the full history of what is now Ohio and I like the interviews with Native Americans and scholars about the regions tribes. I also like that the podcast dispels many misconceptions and went into detail about how native Americans were forcibly removed from the land and the impact of this. Well done!
Outstanding podcast telling an important story all Americans should hear!

This is a deeply researched and well-produced podcast that sheds light on an important untold story from America’s past. Many of us learned in school about the Trail of Tears and the banishment of hundreds of thousands of Native Americans from the southeast to Oklahoma and points west. But I suspect few of us learned any details about earlier efforts to racially cleanse northern states like Ohio. This podcast helps fill that historical void.
Well Researched and Engaging
