Share my research journey as I make my way through the many sources of information newly available about the Carlisle Indian Industrial School. Founded in 1879, Carlisle was the first off-reservation government-sponsored boarding school for Native Americans. I will be examining documentation chronologically and sharing the stories, facts, and insights I discover about the school, its staff, and most importantly, its students.
This week Kate and Jim discuss what's been going on lately, including new acquisitions, walking tours and walking tour publications, a former student in the movies, a finding about Superintendent Mercer and outings, and an update on digitied materials from the Pratt papers at Yale.

Episode 24: A Tragic True Crime Story
As noted at the beginning of this episode, Kate and Jim are discussing a murder-suicide of a former Carlisle student, and reading from newspaper accounts of the time which contain words and characterizations that may be offensive to some listeners. We don’t get into graphic detail of the crimes, but listener discretion is advised.
