Everything Everywhere Daily - The History of Horses in North America (Encore)

When one thinks of the history of North America, it often invokes images of native Americans and cowboys riding on horseback. 

However, horses weren’t in the Westen Hemisphere when Europeans arrived. There was a time when if native people had to move from one place to another, they had to do so on foot. 

But, while that is true, the truth is more complex because if you go back far enough, there was a time when horses were in North America. 

Learn more about the complicated history of horses in North America, and how they unleashed a revolution, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

NBN Book of the Day - Gregory J. Kaliss, “Beyond the Black Power Salute: Athlete Activism in an Era of Change” (U Illinois Press, 2023)

Unequal opportunity sparked Jim Brown's endeavors to encourage Black development while Billie Jean King fought so that women tennis players could earn more money and enjoy greater freedom. Gregory J. Kaliss examines these events and others to guide readers through the unprecedented wave of protest that swept sports in the 1960s and 1970s. The little-known story of the University of Wyoming football players suspended for their activism highlights an analysis of protests by college athletes. The 1971 Muhammad Ali-Joe Frazier clash provides a high-profile example of the Black male athlete's effort to redefine Black masculinity. An in-depth look at the American Basketball Association reveals a league that put Black culture front and center with its style of play and shows how the ABA influenced the development of hip-hop. In Beyond the Black Power Salute: Athlete Activism in an Era of Change (University of Illinois Press, 2023), Kaliss describes the breakthroughs achieved by these athletes, while also exploring the barriers that remained--and in some cases remain today.

Bennett Koerber is an instructor of history at Carnegie Mellon University. He can be reached at bkoerber@andrew.cmu.edu.

New Books in Native American Studies - Susan Burch, “Committed: Remembering Native Kinship in and Beyond Institutions” (UNC Press, 2021)

Between 1902 and 1934, the United States confined hundreds of adults and children from dozens of Native nations at the Canton Asylum for Insane Indians, a federal psychiatric hospital in South Dakota. But detention at the Indian Asylum, as families experienced it, was not the beginning or end of the story. For them, Canton Asylum was one of many places of imposed removal and confinement, including reservations, boarding schools, orphanages, and prison-hospitals. Despite the long reach of institutionalization for those forcibly held at the Asylum, the tenacity of relationships extended within and beyond institutional walls.

In Committed: Remembering Native Kinship in and Beyond Institutions (UNC Press, 2021), Susan Burch tells the story of the Indigenous people—families, communities, and nations, across generations to the present day—who have experienced the impact of this history. Drawing on oral history interviews, correspondence, material objects, and archival sources, Burch reframes the histories of institutionalized people and the places that held them. Committed expands the boundaries of Native American history, disability studies, and U.S. social and cultural history generally.

Susan Burch is a professor of American Studies. Before joining the Middlebury faculty in 2009, she taught at Gallaudet University, King’s College (University of Aberdeen, Scotland), and the Ohio State University. Professor Burch also has worked as a research associate at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History. She earned her BA degree in history and Soviet Studies from Colorado College and her MA and PhD in American and Soviet history from Georgetown University.


Shu Wan is currently matriculated as a doctoral student in history at the University at Buffalo. As a digital and disability historian, he serves in the editorial team of Digital Humanities Quarterly and Nursing Clio.

Andy calls up New York Times politics reporter Reid Epstein and Capital Times reporter Jessie Opoien to discuss that race as a bellwether heading into the 2024 election season, and how Republicans are responding.

What A Day - It All Went Down in the Discord

The FBI has arrested 21-year old Jack Teixeira, a member of the Massachusetts Air National Guard suspected of leaking classified government documents on Discord early last month. The materials revealed sensitive information about the war in Ukraine, and how the U.S. spies on some of its allies.

A federal appeals court partially blocked the decision by a Texas judge to suspend the FDA’s approval of mifepristone, but with tightened restrictions. The Justice Department is now asking the Supreme Court to weigh in on the conflicting decisions over the abortion pill.

And in headlines: President Biden announced a plan to expand healthcare access to DACA recipients, Missouri Republicans are threatening to defund public libraries in the state, and New York Mayor Eric Adams has appointed the city’s first-ever ‘rat czar.’

The Daily Signal - INTERVIEW | Conservative Attorney General’s Fight Against Kid’s Gender Clinic and Biden Administration’s Free Speech Suppression

A whistleblower says a transgender clinic at a children’s hospital in St. Louis is lying to parents about gender treatments. Now, Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey has launched an investigation into the clinic to find out what’s really going on inside the four walls of the children’s hospital.


“We’re looking to shut these types of procedures down and protect kids, and if that includes using civil law, criminal law, revocation of licensure, there is no stone that we will leave unturned,” Bailey says. 

Since taking office in January, Bailey has taken steps to hold the far Left and the Biden administration accountable. In addition to the investigation into the gender clinic, Bailey has taken legal action against the Biden administration, arguing it engaged in suppression of free speech in collaboration with large social media companies.  


Bailey has also called for the removal of St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kimberly Gardner and filed a lawsuit against her, arguing she is failing to prosecute criminals. 


Bailey joins “The Daily Signal Podcast” to explain how he and his office are working to further American values and to protect freedom in Missouri.
