This is the first in a sporadic series about refugees. The series will connect with history, literature, current events, and personal stories. As you listen to this first episode, think about how important a home is. A shelter is essential to survival but a home is more than that. What do we gain or lose by not having a place to call home?

I mention a few organizations that work with refugees. I encourage you to research how you can help people in your community and abroad. No matter where you are, there are displaced people. How can you help them on their journey?

Let's take a dive into Pre-Columbian America. How long were people in the Americas? Were they primitive savages? Is there anything we could possibly learn from so long ago? Join me as we take a quick journey over 30,000 years of history. As you listen, what strikes you? What do you want to know more about? Let me know on any of my social media accounts. You can easily access them here! https://linktr.ee/historybitesize . Thanks for listening and enjoy the show!
