Tonight, we travel back over 20,000 years, to a time when the world was locked in ice and the only way forward was into the unknown. You’re not a conqueror, or a warrior, or even someone with a name. You’re just one of many—tired, hungry, and half-frozen—following your kin across the endless white of Beringia, the land bridge between Siberia and what will one day be called Alaska. There are no maps. No rescue. Just wind, cold, and silence. This is not a story of triumph. It’s one of quiet disappearance.
