Return of the Pawnees film
Once exiled from Nebraska, the Pawnees are now regaining a presence in their homeland due to a remarkable act of reconciliation. In 2007, Roger and Linda Welsh did what few descendants of European immigrants have ever done in the 500-year history of America. They returned their acreage that rests along the Loup River near Dannebrog to its original owners, the Pawnees.
Digital Project: Genoa Indian School Digital Reconciliation Project
The Genoa Indian School Digital Reconciliation Project is a space for telling the stories of the American Indian children who attended Genoa, the stories of their communities, and the stories of their descendants. The Project aims to repatriate government records of Nebraska’s Indian boarding school back to their families and tribal nations, to “bring history home.”
