Description:

Partly in honor of Black History Month (February) and also because it's fascinating, in this episode Jen relates insights from the book "Sweet Freedom's Plains" by Shirley Ann Wilson Moore about the experiences of Black people on the western trails. Did the Shackelfords interact with Black people on their travels, and if so, did Ruth record those interactions? Jen discuss the possibilities and also gives an update on exporting the Shackelford location data from nodegoat.
