In our previous episodes we’ve discussed the most famous tribes in Texas such as the Caddo, Jumano and Comanche.
But today we're diving into the story of the Kickapoo people, a nation that has survived centuries of pressure, crossed international borders, and still maintains one of the most remarkable living cultures in North America. And a big part of that story runs right through Texas.
Today we answer the question: How did the Kickapoo end up in Texas?
