About this episode
In this episode of the Bear Grease podcast, we begin a dive into the origin, life, and legacy, of The Seminole War leader Osceola. Many people know the name, but few know why. As we continue our pursuit to "explore things forgotten but relevant," listen as light is shed on the significance of a man who stood for what he believed in and it cost him his life. Osceola expert and historian, Dr. Patricia Wickman, describes his early life and culture, Jake Tiger of the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma talks about his lineage to Osceola, and Seminole filmmaker, Sterlin Harjo, shares his personal impact from history and lore surrounding the life of Osceola.
