About this episode
In this episode of Homeschool Minnesota, host Dayle Annand speaks with Dr. Nathaniel Jeanson about his groundbreaking book 'They Had Names,' which explores the history of Native Americans through the lens of DNA research. Dr. Jeanson discusses the gaps in traditional American history education, the surprising findings from his research, and the importance of returning indigenous histories to Native American communities. The conversation also touches on the challenges faced by creationists in the scientific community and the significance of homeschooling and apologetics in educating children about their faith and history.
