Today we're taking a trip to the country with the most garbage names per capita, Poland, to talk about a dude that loved killing people from horseback. Casimir Pulaski ran around Europe fighting the Russians every chance he got, and honestly not doing all that well. He was great at drumming up support and training cavalrymen, not so great at the whole leading his troops in battle thing though. But he did come to America and create our cavalry, so at least we can thank him for that. Enjoy!

Leading from City Hall down through five of the Historic District’s prettiest and most interesting squares to Forsyth Park and its fountain, Bull Street is one of Savannah’s most prominent promenades and thoroughfares.Bull Street has been one of the most important streets in Savannah through most of its history. Because of this, many of the city’s most significant buildings – commercial, governmental and religious – and its largest and most beautiful historic homes were built along the street and around its squares.

These days the majority of migrants crossing the US border with Mexico are from Central America. But that wasn’t always the case. For decades, the majority of people crossing the border were Mexicans, seeking jobs and opportunity in the US. Many would stay, without official permission, have families and build new lives. Author Ana Raquel Minian tells us how tighter border regulations had the unintended consequence of encouraging Mexicans to stay. Also, the city of New Orleans is apologizing for the lynching of eleven Italians in the city in 1891. We hear from Michael Santo, a lawyer who pushed for the city to set the record straight;plus, how records of ritual scarring could help some Americans of African descent learn a little more about their family histories; also the story of Barney, a former slave who was granted freedom by joining the British army in the American revolution; and researchers learn that Casimir Pulaski, the man known as the 'Father of the American Cavalry,' was intersex. It’s a story of gender and identity for the history books. (The U.S.-Mexico border barrier in Tijuana, Mexico. Credit: Mario Tama/Getty Images)

The history of the mansion is intriguing and just part of that, is the fact that a rich real estate baron built it and then went on to be buried in a pauper's grave. Everyone from nuns to hippies have called this place home and the once grand estate has become an abandoned eyesore. But it is not completely abandoned. Rumors of hauntings swirl around the property. And legends and hauntings seem to be everywhere one looks in Santa Cruz. We will share some of these strange tales as we explore the history and hauntings of the Rispin Mansion.
