About this episode
If you follow the Bear River north from the Great Salt Lake up to Preston, Idaho, you will reach the site of the 1863 Bear River Massacre of Shoshone people. In 2018, the Shoshone Nation bought the land back, and it’s now a place of restorative healing — both ecological and historical. Darren Parry, former chairman of the Northwestern Band of the Shoshone Nation, joins host Ali Vallarta to tell the story of this project. This episode first aired on March 3, 2022.
