Indigenous Ohio Past and Present
Westward Euro-American immigration into Indian Country, in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, brought Ohio Native Nations and the United States to a crossroads. Could they live as side-by-side as neighbors or was Ohio not big enough for the two of them? Presented by Dr. John Bickers, an assistant professor of History at Case Western Reserve University and a citizen of the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma. Dr. Bickers received his Ph.D. from The Ohio State University and specializes in early American and Native American history. A History Speaks event by the Upper Arlington Historical Society with lead series sponsor, First Merchants Bank. Free to attend. Seeuahistory.orgfor more information.
