Social Justice Saturday: The Otoe-Missouria People of Nebraska

The Otoe-Missouria People lived in Nebraska for hunreds of years and then in 1833 were made to leave after "treaties" gave the land to white people beginning to move to that area. Now, this year, after some people at the Capital and the University have been developing relationships with this tribe, which now lives in Oklahamo, this week members of the tribe were invited for a visit. The time included a ceremony, with an official apology, visits to the land. There's an excellent article about it, I found on the PBS app, and there's the same article on the local NPR station in Nebraska.
