Hey, podcast listeners! I just dove into an incredible 1987 biography on Ronald Reagan by Garry Wills, hands-down one of the best I've read about him. This isn't just a timeline of Reagan's life—it's like stepping through a time portal into his world, feeling what shaped him. Unlike most Reagan bios that zoom in on his presidency, this one focuses more on what made Reagan, well, Reagan: his boyhood, the Disciples of Christ Church, the political sparks at Eureka College, and his early broadcasting days in Des Moines. In this episode, I'm unpacking two fascinating slices of his story—his lifesaving heroics at Lowell Park on the Rock River and the Black Hawk War's role in the settlement of Dixon and Davenport, where Reagan lived. Trust me, this one's a gem!

In 1832, a renegade chief crossed the Mississippi river. In his view, it was simply to get back to his cornfields. But the United States considered it an invasion, and reacted accordingly, and at first, badly, leading to deaths on both sides. It was, according to the general that led troops in the war, a mistake. But it would make the careers of Abraham Lincoln, Jefferson Davis and Zachary Taylor and open up western settlement. Yet if Black Hawk was an enemy, why was he embraced by those that defeated him. Why in the name of newspapers, in the county courthouse, in state motos and in attack helicopters, does he remain? We look at the story of Black Hawk, his 'war,' and the consequences. We'll look at appropriation of Native American symbols and the legacy of Black Hawk's war today. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Abraham Lincoln, (born Feb. 12, 1809, near Hodgenville, Ky., U.S.—died April 15, 1865, Washington, D.C.), 16th president of the U.S. (1861–65). Born in a Kentucky log cabin, he moved to Indiana in 1816 and to Illinois in 1830. After working as a storekeeper, a rail-splitter, a postmaster, and a surveyor, he enlisted as a volunteer in the Black Hawk War (1832) and was elected captain of his company. He taught himself law and in 1836 passed the bar examination. In 1837 he moved his practice from New Salem to Springfield, Ill.

This episode begins with some reflections on my experience and relations to people of place and to where one lives, especially if one's immediate ancestral ties lie elsewhere. I think about responsibilities and possibilities of relating differently and better to this place where I reside by digging deeper beyond the dominant understandings of Indigenous people and issues here in Utah. I highlight a variety of sources by Indigenous folks in order to respect their capacity and listening to what they have already shared by reading what is already available and putting in some work to better understand it. Topics include a localised history of Soonkahni (Salt Lake Valley), Indigenous identities and cultural politics in this place and remembering a more complex and nuanced reality outside of our current cultural climate crisis. I work through different words and terms and where they derive from along with a range of meanings. This episode concludes by thinking about Farmer's historical observation of a shift from an aquatic age to a hydraulic one that underpins various issues currently faced right now in this place. An overarching them is a practice of respecting elder cultures and perspectives in order to more meaningfully relate to place. Terms: Soonkahni (Salt Lake Valley in Newe Taikwa-Shoshoni Language), Piapaa (Big Water, Sea, a name for the Great Salt Lake in Newe Taikwa), Pia Okwai (Big Flow/River, a name for Utah's Jordan River in Newe Taikwa), Newe (The People), Neme (The People), Nuuchiu (The People), Nuwuvi (The People), Diné (The People), Awahko (Sucker fish in Newe Taikwa), Paa Kateten (One name for Utah Lake in Newe Taikwa).

Except for perhaps, children who still have living parents and yet end up in an orphanage. In the state of Montana, many of these orphaned and abandoned children ended up in an orphanage located in the city of Twin Bridges. This was the Montana State Orphan's Asylum that was also known as Twin Bridges Orphanage and later, the Montana Children's Center. It opened in 1894 and housed children for 81 years. Today, it is closed and privately owned and is reputedly one of the more haunted locations in the state. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of the Twin Bridges Orphanage!

Ann Durkin Keating talked to the Chicago Civil War Round Table on February 11th on Juliette Kinzie, the Civil War, and the Making of Chicago For more information: WWW. ChicagoCWRT.Org After spending the 1832 Black Hawk War at Portage, Wisconsin, Juliette settled with her husband, John H. Kinzie at Chicago, where they were central figures in the city's early political, social and religious life. The family witnessed the arrival of the first railroad and the opening of the canal. John was an enthusiastic Whig and then an early supporter of the Republican Party alongside Abraham Lincoln. But the Kinzie family was split by the Civil War. Juliette's husband and three sons served in the Union Army, while her son-in-law was an officer in the Confederacy. Juliette kept in contact with her daughter who lived in Savannah Georgia through letters. This presentation will explore her experiences with a war that fundamentally split her family. Ann Durkin Keating is Toenniges Professor of History at North Central College in Naperville where she has taught for more than 30 years. She is the co-editor of the Encyclopedia of Chicago (2004) and is the author of several books on Chicago history, including most recently The World of Juliette Kinzie: Chicago Before the Fire (2019).

This is Roald Tweet on Rock Island. For a nine-year-old cowboy—me in the 1940s—there was no badder bad guy than an Indian. Cap guns blazing, my buddies and I regularly put away dozens of Indians every summer evening, skillfully avoiding a massacre. Contrast this with a real massacre. It's August the 1 st , 1832. In Wisconsin, where the Bad Axe River flows into the Mississippi, several hundred Sauk Indians—men, women, and children—are trapped. They are the remnants of a thousand Sauk under their leader, Black Hawk, who have been fleeing from Federal troops, Rock Island Rangers, and Illinois militia since April, when they violated a treaty never to return to Illinois. They have been chased up the Rock River into southern Wisconsin, and then west to the Mississippi—an event that history would glorify as the Black Hawk War. They are exhausted, and so hungry they have taken to eating tree bark. As they attempt to cross the river, the Sauk are met by the Federal steamboat Warrior, whose

As a Captain of Volunteers in the Black Hawk War, the 23-year old Abraham Lincoln managed in a desperate moment to keep some hard-bitten men—who had elected him—from committing murder. They had chosen him as captain because he was the best man among them, the one most worthy of their esteem. Lincoln earned it in no small part by outrunning, outboxing, and outwrestling them, but they knew, when they listened to the better angels of their natures, that there were much more important reasons to esteem him.

The history of Indian removal has often followed a single narrative arc, one that begins with President Andrew Jackson's Indian Removal Act of 1830 and follows the Cherokee Trail of Tears. In that conventional account, the Black Hawk War of 1832 encapsulates the experience of tribes in the territories north of the Ohio River. But Indian removal in the Old Northwest was much more complicated—involving many Indian peoples and more than just one policy, event, or politician. In Land Too Good for Indians, historian John P. Bowes takes a long-needed closer, more expansive look at northern Indian removal—and in so doing amplifies the history of Indian removal and of the United States.Bowes focuses on four case studies that exemplify particular elements of removal in the Old Northwest. He traces the paths taken by Delaware Indians in response to Euro-American expansion and U.S. policies in the decades prior to the Indian Removal Act. He also considers the removal experience among the Seneca-Cayugas, Wyandots, and other Indian communities in the Sandusky River region of northwestern Ohio. Bowes uses the 1833 Treaty of Chicago as a lens through which to examine the forces that drove the divergent removals of various Potawatomi communities from northern Illinois and Indiana. And in exploring the experiences of the Odawas and Ojibwes in Michigan Territory, he analyzes the historical context and choices that enabled some Indian communities to avoid relocation west of the Mississippi River.John P. Bowes is Professor of History at Eastern Kentucky University and received his Ph.D. in History from the University of California, Los Angeles. He is the author of several books, including Exiles and Pioneers: Eastern Indians in the Trans-Mississippi West, The Trail of Tears: Removal in the South, Black Hawk and the War of 1832: Removal in the North, The Choctaw, and Land Too Good for Indians: Northern Indian Removal.

Historically Thinking: Conversations about historical knowledge and how we achieve it

  This podcast emanates from Augustana College in Rock Island, Illinois. Rock Island is one of what the locals call the "Quad Cities", four towns or small cities–Rock Island and Moline in Illinois, Davenport and Bettendorf in Iowa–that stretch along the Mississippi River at what used to be the largest rapids on the Upper Mississippi, just above where the Rock River flows into the Father of Waters. These rapids are centered on Arsenal Island, which has been occupied by the United States Army since 1830 when it was Fort Armstrong. If there's a genius of this curious place, it's Black Hawk, the war chief of the Sauk tribe that once had its  town near the junction of the Rock and Mississippi, and which summered on what's now Arsenal Island. Around here, Black Hawk is the name of a college, a hotel, and a chain of banks. Farther afield there's the Chicago Black Hawks, and the Army's workhorse helicopter that owe their name to his inspiration. As my guest today, my colleague Jane Simonsen has said in a recent article, Black Hawk is now "an 'Indian' figure tinted by a vague sense of history and burnished by settler-colonist nostalgia." Today Jane and I discuss Black Hawk, but more than that. We discuss what Black Hawk wore. This turns out to be very important, because what he wore provoked white Americans to comment, and sometimes provoked them to irritation or pity. Fashion and how it's appropriated say not just something about the wearer, but the beholder. In this case, it says a lot about how we want Indians to be–and in a strange way, very hip, with-it, post modernly conscious people turn out to have a sensibility remarkably similar to people in the 1830's. Jane Simonsen is Associate Professor of History here at Augustana College, and our Department's Chair. She is the author of the well-reviewed Making Home Work: Domesticity and Native American Assimilation in the American West, 1860-1919, published by the University of North Carolina Press.

Here's a quick podcasting tribute where Tim discusses time travel, podcasting from the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, and the Gettysburg Address.

Dan Clark reads "First Christmas Tree" by William D. Randall (Little Known Stories of Muscatine, Vol. 4) and then takes a call from Randall's daughter, Shirley Calvert. Guest author Tom Savage says his research has turned up more information about early settlers than was known when the historical marker was placed in the 1960s at the foot of Iowa Avenue ("This granite stone marks the site of the first log cabin...." http://muscatine-tours.com/vanater1.jpg). He tells of the trading post started by Mr. Farnham before the Black Hawk War and mentions other early settlers who will appear in the local-history storybook he and wife Sharon are writing. They own Muscatine Books and More (http://muscatinebooks.com) and have sponsored TTT "from the git-go." Finally, Dan reads an excerpt from a Christmas-tree tale by Steve Hanken, about a pine his parents in Iowa sent him in Vietnam in 1969.
