How the Ho-Chunk Resisted Removal - a podcast by Wisconsin Public Radio

During the long course of Native Americans displacement from their ancestral lands, Wisconsin’s Ho-Chunk took various steps to resist it—some of the successful. Historian Stephen Kantrowitz tells how many Ho-Chunk found ways to return to Wisconsin and remain via ways legal and illegal.

And we’ll discover how some of the Ho-Chunk who returned to Wisconsin were able to put land ownership to their advantage.
