Here's the penultimate seminar interview of the academic year, and our first time in actual recording studio! We hope your ears will thank us. Ari Kelman, Chancellor’s Leadership Professor of History at the University of California, Davis, talks to Lewis Defrates about his paper 'From Manassas to Mankato: How the Civil Wars Bled into the Indian Wars' and its place within his ongoing project exploring the connections between the Civil War and the conflicts between white settlers and Native Americans in the west. Ari also discusses the importance of understanding the Dakota people as constituting a sovereign nation in grappling with this period of history, his own strategies for writing analytical narrative history and the lessons he learnt from collaboratively writing Battles Lines, a graphic history of the Civil War. Also, what an album to pick! If you have any questions, suggestions or feedback, get in touch via @camericanist on Twitter or [email protected]. Spread the word, and thanks for listening! See you next week!
