Are you interested in other episodes of Speak Your Piece? Click Here.  The episode was co-produced by Brad Westwood and Chelsey Zamir with help (sound engineering and post-production editing) from Jason Powers, from the Utah State Library Recording Studio.Speak Your Piece Host Brad Westwood hosts Megan Weiss, a Ph.D. student specializing in the history of the American West, at the University of Utah, about the fascinating history of the DUP (the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers); officially known as the International Society Daughters of Utah Pioneers.  As one of the last states in the country to establish a state history museum — the Museum of Utah is projected to open in 2026 — Utah has made numerous attempts to tell, officially, Utah's fascinating yet complex history. The state's first attempts to conceptualize its history started with the 1897 Pioneer Jubilee, as the state clung to its pioneer narratives and sought to preserve them.  As Weiss tells it, the Jubilee was seen as a “reset” moment for Utah, after pioneers of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Saints of Latter-day Saints arrived in the territory in 1847, and finally achieved statehood in 1896. Many of Utah's history-related organizations and celebrations, still held dear today, were derived from that original 1897 Jubilee festival — the Book of Pioneers, Days of ‘47' celebrations, the Utah State Historical Society (1897) and the DUP (1901), were all established in its wake. With this intent to preserve the Pioneer narrative, Utahns also started keeping and preserving objects, which also became a means to re-examine the past. The Deseret Museum, established in 1869, was a private enterprise and a menagerie curio hall to begin with, but later the collection became more professionalized. Weiss adds that during this professionalization stage, Utah women started the Daughters of Utah Pioneers in 1901. This coincides with the establishment of female-led historical agencies across the country. Together, these descendants of Utah's pioneers commemorated their families, focusing primarily on Utah's “pioneer period” from 1847-1869. Among many social and intellectual endeavors, in the mid-twentieth century, the DUP envisioned and built a Mormon pioneer museum (something of a de facto state museum), with funds gathered widely from private sources, along with funds and a building site, furnished by the Utah State Legislature. Opened in 1950, this prominently placed building serves as the visual terminus looking northward on Main Street.This episode offers a heretofore untold story regarding the public history of Utah; also women's history, twentieth century politics, and perhaps equally as important, how Utah has constructed and presented history in the past. As Utah prepares to open in 2026, a new, more inclusive, state-funded history museum, this backstory is essential listening. For the speakers' bios, please click here for the full show notes plus additional resources and readings. Do you have a question?

In the early 1900's when tourism started to explode in Florida there were more people witnessing native Americans jumping in the water and catching alligators. Spectators called this alligator wrestling. It is a barehanded capture technique developed by the Native American people as well as other handlers to bring an alligator back home alive. You always wanted to bring the alligator back alive because the meat would spoil very quickly in the Florida Sun. As time went on spectators would pay to see native Americans handle alligators and learn more about the culture. This became one of the 1st forms of revenue for the native people in Florida. The name alligator wrestling is a name that has always stuck, it draws people in from all over the country to observe. The alligators in the demonstrations you see are ALL RESCUED alligators that will be able to live out the rest of their lives in a sanctuary instead of being put down.  Battle Reenactment 3 pm Lawn Chairs welcome        Terry Smith, local artist, will be doing a demonstration in the Lockey Room, in the main Building, during the Saturday event.

There is a need to encourage others to speak up to protect our most valuable treasure.  Many things in life can be replaced or rebuilt, but not our greatest possession.  It is my hope that by recording the natural Florida now, people will realize the importance of saving Florida's natural resources, to avoid being left with just memories." – Terry Smith   Fliers for upcoming events mentioned in the podcast

Militia were not formally uniformed as were U. S. soldiers nor were they necessarily armed by the federal government or state or territory when mustered for service. Many brought their own arms as codified in the 2nd Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Living historians at Pioneer Museum of Florida in Dade City December 2021. Photos by Andrew Foster   In this fourth week of Martial Matters, we continue our discussion on the Second Amendment to the U.S. Constitution -- with Jesse Marshall. We do this by further examining the words of the amendment to understand what the words meant and the right secured as addressed in the Seminole Wars. Three levels of Federalism are involved. The right secures the Free State. Shall not be infringed means...shall not be infringed. Using law cases, commentary, and military and civil history, Jesse Marshall outlines the case for why the people chose to codify this as an enumerated right in the U.S. Constitution and what it would mean if there was no such amendment.            Host Patrick Swan is a board member with the Seminole Wars Foundation.

(Lander, WY) - Get ready to celebrate Lander's apple history with the Lander Pioneer Museum Apple Fest, which is set for September 17, 1:00 PM to 3:00 PM. The event will feature apple cider pressing, crafts for kids, Lander apples and talks about the history of Lander apples, horseback rides, an apple pie contest, a kid's apple sauce eating competition, hard cider from Jackson and more. Lander has a long history of apple orchards, and in the early days the community was known as “The Apple City.” A lucky combination of good water and soil, shelter from the wind, and farmers willing to experiment with many tree species to find ones that would grow well here, the Lander Valley developed many fine orchards. In honor of this history, the Pioneer Museum holds apple fest, a fun family event which highlights the many aspects of apples and apple use in the valley. “Our past Apple fests were a huge success. Kids loved pressing, and drinking, fresh cider,” said Museum Curator Randy Wise. “We're having that, plus much more this year so people can have fun and learn about this important part of Lander's history.” Wise said that attempts are being made to bring back some of the historic orchards in the area. Apple fest will include an apple pie contest with cash prizes for the top three pies. There is also a kid's pie competition with those winners also getting prizes and ribbons. “The Fremont County Pioneer Association, which supports the museum, has donated some nice prize money,” Wise said. People are encouraged to get out their yummy family recipes. The rules are available at the museum, or online at the museum Facebook page. The judging will be at 11 a.m. with three lucky judges getting to pick the winners. At one p.m. the pies will be cut up and slices sold to the audience with the money going to the museum. Speaking of lucky judges, check out the recent Coffee Time interview below with Wise, where he asked host Vince Tropea to be one of this year's judges. Another fun event is an apple sauce eating contest for kids. There will be three age groups and the kid who can eat their bowl of apple sauce the fastest will win a prize in each age group. The catch is they have to eat the apple sauce with a straw and can't use their hands. There will also be kids crafts and local apple demonstrations and talks. A highlight is always the presence of Farmstead Wyoming and their samples of hard cider. Many of the apples the company from Jackson uses to make its cider come from the Lander area, and Farmstead will be back this year offering samples of its tart, tasty Wyoming made drink. People are encouraged to bring in their apples and crabapples by the bag, basket or truck load for the company if they want to see the apples put to good use. For information call the museum at 332-3373.

In 1923, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle – the famous author of Sherlock Holmes –  embarked on a worldwide speaking tour.  But this tour was not to sell books of his famous detective.  Instead, it was to win converts to spiritual,ism – the idea that through seances, knocking, and advances in photography, the living could commune with the dead.  With hundreds of millions grieving in the years following the First World War and the Spanish Flu, Sir Arthur felt that the world needed to hear his message, including the Latter-day Saints of the Salt Lake Valley.   When Sir Arthur Conan Doyle arrived in Salt Lake City, it was not exactly his first experience with the Latter-day Saints.  In 1887, he published the mystery, A Study in Scarlet – the first adventure of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson.  The intrepid Sherlock (using the "Science of Deduction") uncovers the horrors of murder, kidnapping, and forced marriages among the Latter-day Saints in the Salt Lake Valley.  Sir Arthur launched the career of his famous detective, as it were, by playing up the most wild stereotypes of the Latter-day Saints.  But his impression of the Latter-day Saints would undergo a profound transformation, and the author of "A Study in Scarlet," who imagined Mormon Women with faces that only showed "the traces of unextinguishable horror" would come to praise the "brave and earnest women" and the "rugged, hard-faced men" among the Latter-day Saint Pioneers.  To learn more about the information in this episode, please check out the following (excellent!) sources: Michael W.

Noted historian and author Dale Cox sat down in June of 2021 with In Focus host Carolyn Hutcheson at the re-enactment of the last battle of the Creek Indian Wars, to discuss his Uchee Indian heritage.  Joining the conversation was frontier re-enactor Tom Garrett.  Both men had ancestors who fought in battles of the 1830s era. This event was held in Troy at the Pioneer Museum of Alabama, as a re-enactment of the 1837 "Battle at Hobdy's Bridge - Thunder on the Three Notch."

Episode note: Mark your calendars for three upcoming Florida living history events: Nov. 13 at the Dade Battlefield Historic State Park for Florida Heritage Day and Dade Park Centennial; Dec 18 Pioneer Day at the Pioneer Museum in Dade City; and Jan. 1-2, 2022 at the Dade Park for the annual Dade Battle re-enactment.    Reenacting war scenes as public spectacle is one means living historians use to bring the general public closer to an understanding of a particular clash in the past. Are they paying homage to the past? Are they playing soldier or Seminole to pretend the past? The profession is one that takes its participation seriously. Many spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on uniform items to ensure they represent properly the period they are portraying. Once called "sham battles" in the 19th century, the modern military reenactment movement began in the 1950s, as the centennial of the Civil War approached. Reenactors are in demand by Hollywood producers, with many playing bit parts as soldiers in "Glory!" and "Gettysburg" among other films.  Autodidact historical hobbyist Jesse Marshall joins us to explain what the spectacle of a military battle reenactment entails and how it has evolved since its origination in the 1950s. Marshall states that Time Machines by Jay Anderson is the most profound book he's read on the living history profession. It is his guide and lodestar.     Jesse Marshall, portraying an Army officer, excitedly discusses the recent action at a reenactment engagement.      Reenactors at the annual Dade Battle spectacle can play regular foot soldiers or Seminole or specific individuals from history. Here, "Luis Pacheco" points out something suspicious on the Fort King Road to an Army officer reenactor. Below, behind the scenes, he can rejoin the 21st century -- but never in front of the public.        Host Patrick Swan is a board member with the Seminole Wars Foundation. He is a combat veteran and of the U.S. Army, serving in Iraq, Afghanistan, Kuwait, and Kosovo, and at the Pentagon after 9/11. A military historian, he holds masters degrees in Public History, Communication, and Homeland Security, and is a graduate of the US Army War College with an advanced degree in strategic studies.

KGMI's Joe Teehan talks to Lynden Pioneer Museum director Troy Luginbill about his choice to step down as curator and director of the iconic Lynden museum.

(Lander, WY) — When you visit a museum and look at the artifacts protected by glass or pieces of art mounted on the wall, it's easy to not think about how the item got there. If you are like me at all, you're focused on the textures of the paintings or who from history could have worn the artifact, not who carefully transported the item, potentially great distances, so I could experience it. Lander resident Reid Schell owns and operates Handle With Care, a fine art and artifact transportation service. He's transported a Congressional Medal of Honor, paintings headed to the Louvre Museum in Paris, a 150-year-old wine collection and so much more. He's actually the reason we currently have the exhibit “Native Americans of Wyoming's Wind River Country” currently at the Pioneer Museum in Lander. The pieces are from a collection by Joseph Sheuerle which features the artist's notes and sketches on the back of his portraits. The unique framing and presentation of his work allow viewers to appreciate both the polished portrait and his notes and sketches. h/t Pioneer Museum - “Native Americans of Wyoming's Wind River Country” The exhibit arrived in Lander last fall and will be on display through the end of September 2021. In 2016, the Montana Historical Society hired Handle With Care to package and transport dozens of framed pieces by Scheuerle from Cincinnati to Helena, Montana. As Reid prepared the works for transportation, he realized many were created in Fort Washakie and was determined to find a way to share the art with Fremont County. He approached the Montana Historical Society and the Lander Pioneer Museum, and over several years of collaboration and cooperation between the three, a loan of more than 20 portraits to Fremont County Museums was set. In the final step, he donated his high-end art transportation services to ensure the safe delivery of this local portion of the collection to the Pioneer Museum. Community News Manager Amanda Fehring sat down with Reid for an episode of Fehring in the Field. Listen to our entire interview below.

Can cooperation and collaboration trump competition and profit maximization in generating community wealth? Matt Noyes, son of Chinook Bookstore founders Dick and Judy Noyes, shares his vision for the variety of ways Colorado Springs can benefit from models of cooperative organization and solidarity economy. There are several cooperatives today in the city of Colorado Springs. The state of Colorado has some of the best cooperative law; it’s a great place to form a cooperative. Listen and learn a lot! Matt studied Applied Social Economy at Mondragon University in Spain after living and working in New York City and Tokyo. He’s done extensive research into cooperatives and solidarity economy. He returns to Colorado Springs bringing his passion for sustainability, workers movements, equity and environmental and food justice, and love of good local food.   LINKS: Colorado Farm & Art Market Better Work Together Colorado: The Delaware of Cooperative Law We’ll See It When We Know It: Recognizing Emergent Solidarity Economy by Matt Noyes (This is a study Matt did of El Paso County) Part OnePart Two The Colorado Cooperatives Study Circle Everything for Everyone: The Radical Tradition that Is Shaping the Next Economy by Nathan Schneider Solidarity Economy Roads by Luis Razeto Migliaro (A great introduction to solidarity economy.
