Mapping History: Lesbian Feminist Cooperative Farms in Greater Minnesota 58:27

منذ 11 يومًا58:27

58:27

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠⁠here⁠⁠ . Many histories of the LGBTQIA+ community are focused on metropolitan areas, but a recent mapping project has elevated the stories of a group of Lesbian feminist cooperative farms in rural Minnesota in the 1970s. In this episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez explores how living off of the land gave Lesbian Feminists a sense of freedom, safety and community. Chantel spoke with two guests: Leila Stallone, a researcher who works on the The Greater Minnesota Two-Spirit LGBTQIA+ History Map Project , and Meadow Muska, a photographer who documented life on the farm. Together, they share stories about how the decision to move into rural areas and build cooperative farms was an act of self-determination, community building and defiance.…

Brick by Brick: The African Americans who Built the Capitol 52:24

منذ 25 يومًا52:24

52:24

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . The Minnesota State Capitol is a gleaming marble building sitting on a hill — an ode to the Italian Renaissance, topped with an impeccably crafted dome. You’ve probably heard of the mind behind the design, Cass Gilbert, plenty of times. But how did Gilbert’s design influence how the building was made, and just who was it that built the capitol itself? In this episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodríguez uncovers the unsung builders of this Minnesota monument — African American stone masons. Who were they, and how did they come to the Twin Cities? To answer those questions and more, Chantel spoke with three experts, each of whom pulls from a different well of historical knowledge: Brian Pease, the Site Manager at the State Capitol, John Sielaff, a labor historian, and Marvin Anderson, the grandson of a stone mason who worked on the site.…

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . Rivers loom large in our past and present – as places for community connection, routes for trading and spaces for recreation. They carry an untold number of stories about the people, the water, and animals that call Minnesota home. But how do we go about learning these stories? In this episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodríguez dives into the rivers of history to explore how people’s relationships to rivers changed over time and how the river itself has been altered by human activities. To answer these questions, Chantel spoke with historian John Anfinson, environmental archaeologist David Mather, as well as Bad River Band of Lake Superior Ojibwe member and indigenous archaeologist Selena Bernier. Each guest shares a unique perspective on river history – from making the Mississippi more navigable in the 19th century, to Native peoples’ use of mollusks, to Native copper carrying communities.…

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . Many places around the world are famous for their love of cycling—think Amsterdam in the Netherlands, or Portland, Oregon. But head to Como Lake in St. Paul, or the Mill Towns Trail in Northfield on a sunny spring day, and you’ll find flocks of cyclists taking advantage of the weather and the well-loved bike paths. How did biking find a place in the hearts of Minnesotans? And how did the robust biking infrastructure in the state come to be? In this episode, host and historian Dr. Chantel Rodríguez explores the evolution of the bicycle in the late 19th century, as well as the cycling craze that followed. Chantel also examines how biking transformed mobility for both women and people in rural areas of the state, as well as the safety and structure of streets themselves. To gain insight into these questions, Chantel spoke with historian and bicycle planner Peter Bird, founder of Tamales y Bicicletas José Luis Villaseñor, and former city councilwoman and longtime Northfield resident Peggy Prowe.…

SoulForce: Black, Brown, and Red Power in the Twin Cities 1:07:05

منذ 10 weeks1:07:05

1:07:05

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . America in the 1960s was a landmark decade for civil rights. But the passage of the Civil Rights Act (1964) and the Voting Rights Act (1965) neither completely, nor immediately, addressed the issues facing diverse communities throughout the country. The Black Power Movement—as well as empowerment movements in the Mexican American and Native American communities—sought to address societal and structural inequalities with more immediacy. Minneapolis’s North Side neighborhood is a community where all three groups' struggles against the structural forces that sought to disenfranchise them intersected. But what exactly connected these groups and their movements? How did they come to join together for the betterment of their collective community? In this episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez explores the histories of these social movements for freedom and equality, as well as the forces that sought to divide and destroy these communities. To gain more insight, Chantel spoke with James Curry, exhibit curator at the University of Minnesota’s Urban Research and Outreach-Engagement Center. Chantel also spoke with Nick Estes, member of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe and assistant professor of American Indian Studies at the University of Minnesota; and Jimmy Patiño, teacher, historian, and researcher in the Department of Chicano and Latino Studies at the University of Minnesota.…

Meatpacking in Minnesota: How Migration and Labor Transformed Worthington 55:05

منذ 14 weeks55:05

55:05

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . Driving through the rural expanse of southwestern Minnesota, there are a lot of things you might expect to see, such as corn fields, cattle, and the quaint main streets of small town America. But, if you find yourself in Worthington, Minnesota, you might be surprised to find the warehouse-sized footprint of a meatpacking facility, along with a rainbow of different cultural restaurants and grocers dotting the main drag. Why is a meatpacking plant so far from a major city center like the Twin Cities? And who are the residents of Worthington whose businesses comprise such a diverse town center? In this episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez delves into the historical context of the meatpacking industry, including its migration from urban centers to rural areas. Chantel also explores how meatpacking’s history of relying on immigrant labor has evolved over time, and how the cultural landscape of rural towns such as Worthington were shaped by global forces. To dig into these questions, Chantel spoke with professor of history Roger Horowitz. To hear their personal stories and connections to the industry, Chantel also sat down with Worthington meatpacking workers Antonio Morales and Leonardo Duarte, as well as Leonardo’s daughter, Andrea Duarte-Alonso.…

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . In 1880, a court case rocked Minneapolis society, and ruled the newspaper headlines. It was the case of Leon Belmont, a man accused of fraud. Authorities claimed that he was a woman wearing men’s clothing, passing herself off as a man. Why so much uproar over this particular case? And was it for the reasons we’d expect? Historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez explores what life looked like in late 1800s Minneapolis, why fraud might’ve been top of mind, and how historians make responsible histories. To get more insight into these questions and more, Chantel sat down with public historian Lizzie Ehrenhalt and PhD candidate Myra Billund-Phibbs.…

49:15

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . The Midwest—and Minnesota in particular—is known for its roadside attractions, from the world’s biggest ball of twine (made by one person) to the world’s largest boot. But drive through the Northwoods town of Bemidji, Minnesota, and you’ll find towering statues of a legendary lumberjack Paul Bunyan and his pal— Babe the Blue Ox—looking over the lake shore. This episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodríguez probes the history—and myths—behind these statues. How did they end up there, and why does Paul Bunyan’s story linger in popular culture and what does it tell us about the logging industry? To better understand these questions and more, Chantel speaks with librarian and educator Jennifer Kleinjung, as well as Kasey Keeler, associate professor at the University of Wisconsin.…

Enduring Connections: Native Community and Basketball 45:19

45:19

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . Women’s basketball is having a moment in the United States—in fact, Minnesota’s own WNBA team, the Lynx, have won four championships and even made it to the finals in 2024. But while sports have empowered women in modern society, the history of basketball—not unlike the history of women in this country—is, well, complicated. Peek into the far corner of the Minnesota History Center’s exhibit on girlhood, and you’ll uncover another layer to that history—the relationship between Native communities and basketball. In this episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez dives into the intimate and complex history of Native peoples and what came to be known as rez, or reservation, ball. How did Native people develop a deep, communal connection to something that was introduced as part of an effort to destroy that very sense of community? To better understand these intricacies, Chantel talks with historian and former ball-player Syd Beane, along with former player and coach Brook LaFloe and documentary filmmaker Leya Hale.…

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . Buffalo once roamed across Minnesota in the thousands. Now, the Minnesota Bison Collaborative is working to bring them back. It’s a trickier proposition than you might think.

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . Think “buffalo” and you probably think “Wild West,” “Yellowstone”, or “Great Plains.” In this two-part episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez uncovers why you should also think “Minnesota”. The history of bison in the North Star State is a long one, but not one that’s well-known. Through conversations with Native natural resource manager Ferin Davis Anderson (enrolled citizen of the Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa/Ojibwe/Anishinaabe/Mitchifs in North Dakota), conservation biologist Mary Mallinger, and historian Pete DeCarlo, Chantel fills in the picture of bison’s history with Minnesota’s prairies – and people.…

This episode, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez unpacks the complicated, nuanced history of Better Baby competitions. What were they, where did they come from, and what were they hoping to achieve? To get the answers, Chantel sits down with public historians Laura Leppink and Sarah Pawlicki.…

We'd love to hear your thoughts about Minnesota Unraveled! Please fill out our survey ⁠here⁠ . Dotted throughout the Twin Cities are fallout shelter signs. Chances are you’ve seen one of these black and yellow signs attached to a very sturdy building. Have you wondered: What purpose did they serve? Why were fallout shelters needed to begin with? What was it like to live in the atomic age? For this second episode of MN Unraveled, historian and host Dr. Chantel Rodriguez explores the history of fallout shelters. What starts with a question about the origin of fallout shelter signs becomes an exploration of the family and the American way of life. She dives into this history with author Dave Kenney and historian Elaine Tyler May.…

If you’re in the West Side of St. Paul, there’s a chance a splash of color will catch your eye – one of the neighborhood’s many murals. Where did they all come from? Do they have a shared heritage?
